First of all, I am going to take a moment to shamelessly praise Amish for his immense amount of imagination and the way he brings his imagination to perfection. When I read the Shiva trilogy, I was stumped by the way Lord Shiva was portrayed and I couldn't stop myself from reading them.
This book is based on Lord Ram of Ayodhya, who believes in a perfect idealistic society where people follow all the rules and keeps crime and corruption out of it.
But Ram cannot achieve a perfect society due to the increased number of criminal activities in India.
I could relate to the way India was portrayed because India is almost there in terms of criminal activities. The way Lord Ram implemented the laws and abided them, I wished for a Ram in our times who can save India from drowning in the sea of corruption and crime.
This book, even though had a slow start, picked the pace soon enough and things became very interesting.
Full review to come soon enough!
