Vaishnavi Patel’s four standalone novels all draw on Hindu mythology to tell stories from perspectives not traditionally centered in the original epics. Kaikeyi (2022) reworks the Ramayana around the queen usually cast as its antagonist. Goddess of the River (2024) continues the approach with a different mythological figure.
Ten Incarnations of Rebellion (2025) and We Dance Upon Demons (2026) expand Patel’s range within mythological fantasy. Each novel stands alone and requires no prior knowledge of the others, though readers familiar with Hindu mythology will recognize the source material being reinterpreted.
