Description
Enter a world of fantasy, forbidden love, political intrigue and magic with Dustria.
Sula, a gifted, young surgeon, makes a terrible mistake and flees to Dustria, a land of monsters and broken things, to punish herself. But she doesn’t learn from her mistakes until she is presented with a situation where she must choose between confronting her past or continuing down an unexamined path.
Set within a vibrant world of warring Kingdoms, backstabbing Immortals and the tension between love and magic, Dustria is an intense intertwined mania wrapped around the cerulean blue liquid which changed the world.
Dustria is for the questioning reader, examining themes in unrequited love, substance abuse, sexual diversity, and enduring friendships. It’s set against the backdrop of a constant exploration of the question: Can we redeem ourselves from terrible mistakes made in our younger years or do we, sometimes, need to find alternate ways to frame our lives in order to grow as individuals and forgive ourselves?

Dustria by Madhurika Sankar is a masterpiece! Loved every second of this book. So so so good. I totally recommend everyone to read this book as fast as they can because it's really good and the characters are fantastic.

An intriguing debut! I thoroughly enjoyed this story. There was just enough mystery and magic to keep me turning the pages. While there are parts that perhaps felt a little unpolished, I'm certain most readers would find this book redeeming.
Also an excellent addition to the shelves of anyone trying to diversify their reading this year.

I was hooked from the cover and description, it had that element that I was looking for and was glad it was so well written. The characters were everything that I was looking for and enjoyed how the magic was used in this world. Madhurika Sankar was able to weave a strong start and worked overall in this universe. I thought it was a great idea to ask the question of what if someone kills a immortal. It was overall a strong story and was glad I read this.
