520    ""I was born on the full moon under an auspicious 
       constellation, the holiest of positions-much good it did 
       me." So begins Kaikeyi's tale. The only daughter of the 
       kingdom of Kekaya, she is raised on grand stories about 
       the might and benevolence of the gods: how they churned 
       vast oceans to obtain the nectar of immortality, how they 
       offer the devoted and the wise magnificent boons, how they
       vanquish evil and ensure the land prospers. Yet she 
       watches as her father unceremoniously banishes her mother,
       her own worth measured by how great a marriage alliance 
       she can secure. And when she calls upon the gods for help,
       they never seem to hear. Desperate for some measure of 
       independence, she turns to the ancient texts she once read
       with her mother and discovers a magic that is hers alone. 
       She uses it to transform herself from overlooked princess 
       into warrior, diplomat, and most-favored queen, determined
       to forge a better world for herself than the one that gods
       and men have granted. But as the demons of stories Kaikeyi
       grew up hearing threaten the cosmic order, her will 
       clashes with the path that the gods have chosen for her 
       family-and especially that of her beloved son, Rama. And 
       she must decide if her resistance is worth the destruction
       it will wreak...and what legacy she intends to leave 
       behind"--|cProvided by publisher
