Books with title Rama's Return

Fairies exist. But they aren't living in a magical world on the second star to the left, no, they live right here, fighting nature, predators, and other fae for survival. They each come with an ability--an influence over a specific animal, or plant, or even rock, and use those abilities to support the clans that they live in.Eighteen years ago a rebel Raven Influence terrorized both the Fall and Summer Clans. He spread destruction and mayhem, ruining crops, terrorizing innocent fae, and creating panic before he disappeared. For years nothing was heard of him, until now. Raven's back, and he's looking for a certain Squirrel Influence. He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants. Unfortunately for him, this time the Fall Clan's leader, Visal, has no plans on letting him get his way.Secrets from the past will be revealed, and a war is about to start in the Fae world, one where a flock of crows really deserves the title "Murder." Raven's Return is the first book of the Season of the Fae series.

It's a stormy night and Jaya and her mum are waiting for Dad to come home to begin their Divali celebrations. As they wait, Mum tells Jaya the story of Rama and Sita, upon which their New Year's celebrations are based. Together they make the rangoli patterns, get dressed in special new clothes, and light the divas that will chase the darkness away. And, like the people of Ayodhya, Jaya waits expectantly for her father's safe return.
