 Accused of a murder she did not commit, princess Arianna of the queendom of Wilerna is forced to abandon everything she knows and go on the run. In order to avenge her sister and clear her name, she must find the killer, before her brother's schemes to take over the throne destroy the queendom itself.

There are other questions she has to answer - who is the mysterious stranger who has the ear of her brother? Will she ever find a safe haven, or will she be on the run forever? Is she really who she believes she is? Answers create new questions, and nothing is what it seems to be. What is her true destiny?

Sangamithra Nataraj is a writer, poet and bibliophile. Arianna's Quest is her debut fantasy novel. She has published four short stories in three anthologies, and two novellas. She also writes literary fiction and haiku poetry, and dreams of becoming a full-time professional author. 

Countless drops falling from the heart of heaven,

Each like a part of a grand symphony,

To Noah ‘twas God’s means of getting even,

On all who dared disrupt Gaia’s harmony.

The rain creates and devastates at will,

Like a trebuchet on anything it can spill,

An acme of power , an architect of bliss,

Something so blissful , you’d be a fool to miss.

 Many a thing on earth can make you feel temporal bliss,
And if you are wise you will be sure to give it a miss,
I am not talking about beautiful things like a kiss,
But things that cause turmoil and pull you into the abyss.

Temporal Bliss can be your go to in this life,
Temporal bliss can satisfy you when you face strife,
But be wary of its effects on your mind and being,
To be its slave kills you slowly,
A truth like this I can tell without even knowing!

 Many mathematical concepts originated in Ancient India. Many centuries ago, mathematics was known as ganitham and algebra was known as bijaganitham. It might come as a surprise that many concepts seen in the mathematics of today already existed in Ancient India- for example, Pell's Equation was known as Samasa, and modern cryptography is similar to the Aryabhatiya Alphabetical Numeral System. Several concepts that helped to shape modern computing existed in ancient Sanskrit texts- a fact little-known to many computer professionals today. This book is an effort to establish the relevance of the mathematics found in ancient Sanskrit texts to the computational mathematics used in modern computers. 

The Story of My Experience with Truth is a gripping narrative of the author’s spiritual journey, beginning with a personal encounter with Jesus at the age of 19. In exceptionally engaging and fluid language she describes the intensely-lived moments of her life in all of which God who heeds but hides played a definitive part. The story also speaks of the times she enjoyed most her roles as wife, mother and teacher.

This is a book that you cannot put down till you’ve read till the end.

You may smile, or laugh merrily, as you read along.

The book also will make you think.

It could make a positive, wholesome impact on your life.
