About this audiobook
In the ancient city of Harappa, where the Indus River winds whisper secrets of gods and warriors, young Halim trains as a Shakti warrior - a guardian of sacred energy. But when his beloved mother is struck by a mysterious, wasting illness, he is forced to abandon the safety of his home and embrace a perilous journey beyond the known world.
Joined by Sanjit, a battle-hardened Shakti warrior, and his fiery sister Taja, Halim must cross treacherous lands to reach the mythical Kunlun Mountains, where a forgotten monastery guards the only cure. But danger follows close behind - the savage Ignogai tribe, led by a bloodthirsty shaman, who will stop at nothing to capture their prey.
As magic stirs and ancient legends come to life, the trio must place their trust in strange allies, including unicorns and other outlandish characters, to outwit their enemies and survive the wilds. The clock is ticking, and if they fail, Halim's mother, and their world, may be lost forever.
