Resumen del Editor

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON MEETS SUCCESSION IN AN EPIC REIMAGINING OF THE MAHABHARATA

SOME BALLADS ARE INKED IN BLOOD

Bled dry by violent confrontations with the Magadhan Empire, the Mathuran Republic simmers on the brink of oblivion. Senator Krishna and his third wife Satyabhama have put their plans in motion, both within and beyond the Republic’s blood-soaked borders, to protect it from total annihilation.

But they are soon to discover that neither gold nor alliances last forever – and that they are not the only players on the board.

Mati, Pirate-Princess of Kalinga, has decided to mend her ways and become a good wife. But old habits die hard, especially when one habitually uses murder to settle old scores.

Brooding and beautiful Karna hopes to bury his brutal past, but finds that destiny is a miser when it comes to granting second chances.

Hero-turned-torturer Shakuni limps through a path of daggers. Meanwhile, his foes and woes multiply, leaving little time for vengeance.

Their lives are about to become yet more difficult, as a cast of sinister queens, naive kings, pious assassins and ravenous priests are converging where the Son of Darkness is prophesied to rise . . . even as forgotten Gods prepare to play their hand.

Reseñas de la Crítica

'An unforgettable wild journey set in re-imagined Vedic India' SF Book Review

'Like Game of Thrones in an Indian alternative universe... exhilarating... heralds the arrival of a special new talent' Dan Jones

'The sprawling scope of the epics with all the brutal and bleak nature of your favorite grimdarks. Complex geopolitical drama, strife, and military battles to rival the greats of the genre and will have you sitting by the seat of your pants. You're going to want to read this dark South Asian fantasy infused to the brim with Mahabharata and Malazan's DNA' R.R. Virdi

Nice book. flawed narration

interesting spin on the Mahabharata. Please find a different narrator. Homer even gets the author's name wrong. there are many good narrators in India. I can get you some if need be.

I can't believe this is a debut novel.

Amazing performance and an incredible story!

I was not expecting this to be the best debut novel of the year but here we are.

Some interesting characters and story gets more intriguing as it gets closer to the end.

There is a lot of r*pe. I understand it's a part of war but was a bit excessive in this book.

Loved the premise, disappointed with the execution

I was so excited for this book, and I'm so disappointed in it's execution. This is a debut novel and you can tell. The author had a really ambitious idea but his writing skill isn't yet strong enough to do the concept justice. So the read is left with long boring passages of characters explaining all of the political alliances and history that brought us to this point, but never really shown how those things are affecting the present.

Boring

I really hope the reviews praising this beautiful-looking book outweighed the negative warnings. It was truly boring and verbose.
