Blue-Skinned Mystics - Paperback

by Anitha Krishnan (Author)

Magic saved his village. Now, magic wants his soul.

The blue-skinned mystics descend on the village of Hanish, a land ravaged by drought and famine, and transform it into an oasis.

All it takes to heal the barren village is a single drop of tear that rolls down the cheek of eight-year-old Ari.

Or so it seems, until Ari begins to turn blue. Evidently, the saviours of his land intend to take more than they have given.

Sacrifices must be made for the greater good. And an innocent drop of tear is not enough.

Blue-Skinned Mystics is a literary fantasy tale, a coming-of-age story steeped in magic and mysticism, and a reminder that growing up entails its fair share of loss - of innocence, of simple-minded faith, and of the uncomplicated wonders of childhood.
