Publisher's summary

जब बुराई एक महाकाय रूप धारण कर लेती है, जब ऐसा प्रतीत होता है कि सबकुछ लुप्त हो चुका है, जब आपके शत्रु विजय प्राप्त कर लेंगे, तब एक महानायक अवतरित होगा।क्या वह रूखा एवं खुरदुरा तिब्बती प्रवासी शिव सचमुच ही महानायक है? और क्या वह महानायक बनना भी चाहता है अथवा नहीं? अपने प्रारब्ध एवं कर्तव्य की ओर खिंच जाने वाले एवं साथ ही प्रेम से प्रेरित शिव क्या सूर्यवंशियों के प्रतिशोध में उनका नेतृत्व करेंगे और बुराइयों का नाश करेंगे?

यह शिव रचना त्रयी की प्रथम पुस्तक है। शिव एक साधारण मनुष्य है जिसके कर्म उसे देवों के देव महादेव में परिवर्तित कर देते हैं।

The whole concept is amazing but…

The concept of how dharm is explained to someone who is not aware of sanatan dharm is quite interesting. The main characters however has no growth of their own which makes it hard to have a grip. For example this might be a tricky way to put it but the concept of show don’t tell has not been executed to the full extent as it should. Shiva the Main character has all the qualities to take things forward and we hear it from different characters too but we are not able to see the full extent of his might. And that godly aura around him is missing. Other than that, since this is Mr. Tripathi’s first book it shows that his writing skills were a little hard to have a flow for readers and not that investing into the story. But apart from everything, the detail explanation of dharm and connecting it with science was a superb execution and the whole thing works somehow. Kudos to Mr. Tripathi for this achievement.
