Stealing Thunder
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Description
Protecting her identity means life or death in this immersive epic fantasy inspired by the Mughal Empire.
In a different life, under a different name, Razia Khan was raised to be the Crown Prince of Nizam, the most powerful kingdom in Daryastan. Born with the soul of a woman, she ran away at a young age to escape her father’s hatred and live life true to herself.
Amongst the hijras of Bikampur, Razia finds sisterhood and discovers a new purpose in life. By day she’s one of her dera’s finest dancers, and by night its most profitable thief. But when her latest target leads her to cross paths with Arjun Agnivansha, Prince of Bikampur, it is she who has something stolen.
An immediate connection with the prince changes Razia’s life forever, and she finds herself embroiled in a dangerous political war. The stakes are greater than any heist she’s ever performed. When the battle brings her face to face with her father, Razia has the chance to reclaim everything she lost…and save her prince.

Starred review from February 1, 2020
Razia Khan survives in Bikampur the only way she knows how: By day she dances, entertaining men with her beauty; at night, she is a lucrative thief. She doesn't want to steal, but her work keeps her protected from her past life as Crown Prince of Nizam. To survive and live fully as a woman, Razia left her royal life behind, to live with the hijras in her new home. Now there is another prince in her life, Arjun Agnivansha of Bikampur. As their relationship grows, Razia's past catches up with her, even as her political acumen finds her in the midst of tensenegotiations and possible war. Such a war would bring her face to face with her father--and threaten everything she has fought for. VERDICT This delightful debut is rich with detailed worldbuilding, political intrigue, and South Asian cultural references drawn from Boyden's experience as a trans activist who has traveled in India and Pakistan. Boyden handles the story with a steady hand, and this first novel will delight romantic fantasy enthusiasts.--Kristi Chadwick, Massachusetts Lib. Syst., Northampton
