Shelly Shanfield: The Mountain Goddess

This local novelist reads from The Mountain Goddess, the 2nd in her Sadhana fantasy trilogy that explores the spiritual struggles of women in the Buddha’s time. In this book, the young prince Siddhartha falls for a beautiful warrior who has mastered supernatural yogic powers, and she’s the only person who may be able to convince him to stay with his people rather than leave on a quest for enlightenment.
