Roshani Chokshi (www.roshanichokshi.com) is the author of the instant New York Times bestselling novel, The Star-Touched Queen, and its companion, A Crown of Wishes. She studied fairy tales in college, and she has a pet luck dragon that looks suspiciously like a Great Pyrenees dog. Aru Shah and the End of Time, her middle grade debut, was inspired by the stories her grandmother told her as well as Roshani's all-consuming love for Sailor Moon. She lives in the south and says y'all, but she doesn't really have a Southern accent. Her Twitter handle is @roshani_chokshi.
PRAISE FOR ARU SHAH AND THE END OF TIME *Using Hindu mythology as the foundation, Chokshi has created an exciting adventure around a coming-of-age tale. Just as Percy Jackson led tweens to a deeper exploration and appreciation of classic Greek mythology, Chokshi's tale will likely inspire a similar demand for traditional Indian mythology. An enthralling start to a series that Riordan fans and anyone in the mood for a high-octane adventure will love.--School Library Journal (starred review)
