Description MEET KIRANMALA: INTERDIMENSIONAL DEMON SLAYER (Only she doesn\'t know it yet.) On the morning of her 12th birthday, Kiranmala is just a regular sixth grader living in Parsippany, New Jersey...until her parents mysteriously vanish and a drooling rakkhosh demon slams through her kitchen, determined to eat her alive.
She is a team member of We Need Diverse Books, and can be found online at sayantanidasgupta.com and on Twitter at @sayantani16..
When she\'s not writing or reading, Sayantani spends time watching cooking shows with her trilingual children and protecting her black Labrador retriever Khushi from the many things that scare him, including plastic bags.
She is a pediatrician by training, but now teaches at Columbia University.
About the author Sayantani DasGupta grew up hearing stories about brave princesses, bloodthirsty rakkhosh, and flying pakkhiraj horses.
There she must solve riddles and battle demons all while avoiding the Serpent King of the underworld and the Rakkhoshi Queen in order to find her parents and basically save New Jersey, her entire world, and everything Beyond it...
Suddenly, Kiran is swept into another dimension full of magic, winged horses, moving maps, and annoying, talking birds.
To complicate matters, two crush-worthy princes ring her doorbell, insisting they\'ve come to rescue her.
Turns out there might be some truth to her parents\' fantastical stories -- like how Kiranmala is a real Indian princess and how she comes from a Secret place not of this world.
