The Immortals Of Meluha (Shiva Trilogy Book 1)

Whole page painted in black .

This is a really fun book. Amish clearly knows his Hindu/Indian history, tradtions and philosophy. He combines them well to tell a gripping fast paced story of how Shiva in the form of a man, idylically lliving in the Himalays is convinced to help rescue of the Meluhans living in the Indus-Saraswati plains of 4000 years ago. Phrophesised as the "Neelkanth", he reluctantly takes on his destiny and embarks on an adventure across the geography of ancient India. The story is peopled by characters and places that many who are conversant with the traiditons of India will be well aware of. The use of Hindu philosphical ideas, and of Sanskrit names and phrases is delicately woven into the story with clear expanation of the context. A good read! Looking forward to the others in the trilogy!

Excellent book....nicely written.

Good reading. Fresh book.

The Shiva trilogy needs no recommendations. It is in itself a very gripping and a very logical yet awe-inspiringly new venture which draws a beautiful picture of Ancient India and gives us a glimpse of the life Shiva might have led. Amazing is the fact that how this tale fits in perfectly with all the fables and mythological stories that had been going around since the beginning.

This is my first novel. And the book/story is very interesting. Must read if you want to start your reading journey. Thanks for this beautiful story Amish Ji. The book I got was original copy.
