Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

She was never meant to kneel.Born into the powerful Chowta dynasty along the windswept coast of 16th century India, Abbakka was raised not for silence, but for command. Trained in warfare, strategy, and diplomacy from childhood, she rose to rule the thriving port of Ullal in a world where empires expanded by force and submission was expected. Abbakka chose neither.When Portuguese fleets arrived demanding tribute, she refused with a clarity that would echo across the Arabian Sea. What followed was not a single battle, but a lifetime of war. She built alliances across religion and rank, commanded a diverse navy, and turned the coastline itself into a weapon. As her enemies adapted, so did she, transforming from a defending queen into something far more dangerous, a relentless sea raider who struck at the very heart of colonial power.At her side stood her daughters, Devika and Malli, raised in fire and shaped by conflict. One became a strategist of rare precision. The other, a fearless force of action. Together, they witnessed the rise of a legend, and the cost of defiance.This book also includes a detailed historical timeline of Abbakka's real life to separate fact from legend and illuminate the truth behind the myth."A fierce and unforgettable portrait of resistance and power. History roars to life on every page." Helena Johnson, Historian
