Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia
Overview
After losing both her mother and her homeland, Sitara sinks into grief—until she discovers strength through learning. Everything changes when a family of scholars welcomes her, expanding her education and her sense of purpose. But as Genghis Khan’s Mongol Empire sweeps across one country after another, it edges closer to her new refuge. When the empire’s Fourth Prince captures her, a quiet sorrow turns into a burning desire for revenge.
