About the Book
The Magicians of Mazda is Ashwin Sanghi's most gripping and provocative novel yet, skillfully blending history, mythology, and thrilling suspense. The story begins in 720 CE, when a fleet of boats carrying eighteen thousand refugees from Iran's Umayyad Caliphate docks at the port of Sanjan in Gujarat. Amidst their arrival, a high priest consecrates a sacred fire, marking the start of a journey filled with mystery and intrigue.
Fast-forward to modern times: Parsi scientist Jim Dastoor is abducted from his Seattle lab and taken to Tehran. The Ayatollah believes that Jim holds the key to uncovering the Athravan Star, a legendary relic that holds unimaginable power. Jim and his wife, Linda, are thrown into a dangerous chase, moving from the ancient ruins of Persepolis to the Taliban camps in Afghanistan, the fire temples of Udvada, the icy mountains of Kashmir, and the ominous Tower of Silence in Diu.
Through this thrilling narrative, Sanghi navigates time and geography, offering readers a journey from the epochs of Islamic jihad, Macedonian revenge, Achaemenid glory, and messianic birth to the roots of the Aryan schism. The Magicians of Mazda explores a gripping tale of ancient secrets, contemporary intrigue, and the lengths people will go to uncover the truth behind lost relics.
