Aru Shah And The Song Of Death (Pandava, #2)

by Roshani Chokshi

Soneela Nankani (Narrator)

Aru is only just getting the hang of this whole Pandava thing
when the Otherworld goes into full panic mode. The god
of love's bow and arrow have gone missing, and the thief isn't playing
Cupid. Instead, they're turning people into heartless fighting-machine
zombies. If that weren't bad enough, somehow Aru gets
framed as the thief. If she doesn't find the arrow by the next full
moon, she'll be kicked out of the Otherworld. For good.

But, for better or worse, she won't be going it alone. Along with
her soul-sister, Mini, Aru will team up with Brynne, an ultra-strong
girl who knows more than she lets on, and Aiden, the boy who
lives across the street and is also hiding plenty of secrets. Together
they'll battle demons, travel through a glittering and
dangerous serpent realm, and discover that their enemy isn't at all
who they expected.

Reviews

[Nessa Luna]

I loved how this book immediately throws you right back into the action. I feel as if no time at all had passed since the end of the previous book (I believe it may have only been a couple of hours or so?). I loved being back with Aru and Mini and I especially loved meeting the new characters of Aiden (ok we'd met him in the previous book a bit) and Brynne.

This book taught me a couple of things about a mythology I had no prior knowledge of before starting this series, so I am honestly very grateful for that. The glossary at the back will help out as well if you're confused by some of the names (because I was, sometimes). I highly recommend you pick up these books if you loved any of Rick Riordan's books and if you love learning about mythologies in a fun way!

I have already ordered the third book in this quartet and will hopefully pick it up soon!

Star Rating : 5 STARS!

I’m doing my happy dance. I can’t. stop.

I loved this so much. Literally. So. Much.

RTC so much to say ! So much to love ! Plus I’m too busy singing and dancing with glee.

vvv THEBEST vvv [the instant the first WORD to this lyric was said, I think I died of happiness. After singing it through, of course. Three times. One of my favorite parts of Mulan😊]

We must be...
Swift as the coursing river,
With all the Force of a great typhoon ,
With all the Strength of a raging fire ;

[Ah, Aru, how I love your amazing references. I kind of cherish the ones, too, that make me wonder how some readers younger than me would understand or “get it,” haha. The ones that are pretty obscure had me going 🧐🤓 that is so freakin awesome! I am loving this! Hopefully it gets readers curious enough that they look them up; it’s how we keep those sorts of things alive 💛💛💛]

Mysterious as the dark side of the MOOOOOOONNN!
