Kavithri is majestic: a pacy, visceral tale . . . powered by a heroine with lashings of charm and grit in equal measure. Captivating, exhilarating, funny and brutal, this book will be massive, and deservedly so * David Wragg, author of The Black Hawks * The worldbuilding and character work is absolutely stunning, and it keeps a joyous tone even when it goes to some very dark places. Steampunk Desi fantasy meets Neon Genesis Evangelion * Peter McLean, author of Priest of Bones * A vivid and brutal world leaps off the page * Matthew Ward, author of Legacy of Ash * An exhilarating ride through a vivid and violent world, KAVITHRI is simultaneously brutal, triumphant, and astounding. I absolutely loved it! * Sarah Beth Durst, award-winning author of The Queens of Renthia series * With Kavithri, Aman J. Bedi presents a striking examination of class, caste, and colonialism by way of wondrously creative magic and an underdog you can't help but root for * J.T. Greathouse, British Fantasy Award-nominated author * Aman has created such a richly detailed, darkly gritty world, and Kavi is such a compelling, sharp, and original heroine. Kavithri is dark academia, but with a raw and bloodied edge to it. * Sunyi Dean, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Book Eaters *
