Chakraborty’s Daevabad Trilogy and Andrea Stewart’s The Drowning Empire. 'A magnificent feast of a world' Shannon Chakraborty, bestselling author of The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi 'What a story! I think a lot of epic fantasy fans … will really enjoy this one' Sunyi Dean, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Book Eaters How far would you go to find home? Relics of a mysterious god, the Spice Gates connect the eight far-flung kingdoms, each separated by a distinct spice and only accessible by those born with a special mark. This is not a mark of distinction, but one of subjugation: Spice Carriers suffer the lashes of their rich masters and the jolting pain of the Gates themselves. Amir is a Spice Carrier dreaming of escape. But something is stirring in the inhospitable spaces between the kingdoms. As Amir makes his plan for freedom, he’s drawn into a plot that threatens to unravel the power keeping the gates in balance. Gods, assassins and thronekeepers all have a vested interest in the spice trade, and Amir will have to decide what kind of world he wants to live in … if the world survives at all. 'The Spice Gate invites readers on a spellbinding journey. Srivatsa's storytelling prowess shines … a must-read for fantasy aficionados' Taran Matharu, New York Times bestselling author of Dragon Rider ‘Rich, complex worldbuilding, ambitious scale and characters you’ll cherish. A bold, original step forward for South Asia-inspired epic fantasy. I loved The Spice Gate!’ Samit Basu, author of The Jinn-Bot of Shantiport ‘A grand epic fantasy with a fiery core of rage against injustice. This is a book you can taste, where flavour itself is a kind of magic’ Vajra Chandrasekera, author of The Saint of Bright Doors In this bestseller novel, Srivatsa weaves tales of action and mythology, creating a dark and historical fiction that is as captivating as it is profound. The Spice Gate is not just a Sunday Times bestselling book, but a testament to the power of storytelling. For fans of J.K. Rowling (The Casual Vacancy), Haruki Murakami (The City and Its Uncertain Walls), Alan Moore (Illuminations), Polly Barton (Hunchback), and Srishti Chaudhary (Once Upon a Curfew). HarperCollins 2024
