The Oath of the Vayuputras

Shiva Trilogy's

The Oath of the Vayuputras 

-Amish

(Note: Though book seem religious but it's purely fiction. It's inspired from Hindu mythology but it's pure work of fiction and a marvelous one .It has those moral boosting stories that one would wanna teach their children.)

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  I really mesmerized by reading this book .This book has rewritten the ancient stories of gods in new limelight.Though this stories are fiction but they have captured the charisma of the characters ,the morality of the subject,the teachings ,the sanctity of Vedic stories,the romance of husband-wife,the valor and gallant of a warrior ,the fun in friendship ,the joy of family .I just cant find enough words to describe this book.Even when i'm writing i'm in hangover of this book .It's been just 3 minutes i finished this book and want to tell everyone READ IT AT ONCE :) .
The story of God Shiva has been rewritten in mortal form of Shiva. The blind faith has been given a reason to worship. This book has been written so marvelously that it's hard to believe that this was fiction . The narration of the story is marvelous.
We are told the stories by our grandparents of God Shiva .I have practically lived with them and now when i see this stories in new limelight. I'm just mesmerized. Really the author's imaginative skill cannot be compared. If it was 800-900 AD this would be one of the Great epic Granthas. I don't know and i cant tell why i'm so much exited about this story ,was it because i saw the stories of my grandma connecting and coming alive or is it the sheer narrative style of author who has taken over my mind at this moment i write this review.Be anything ,this book is must read book . Those who are reading the review I strongly recommend this book .
The book has story of Shiva finding the evil. How excess of good can turn out to be evil and how nature tries to balance it. The patriotism of a soldier ,the love of loving husband and wife,the love of separated souls.Book has awesome narration of war strategies .Story has covered excellently how One's ideology can lead to disaster and how one person can save the disaster.How people trust their faith in their God without questioning. How the trust of people is sometimes enforced and mislead by rulers. How even the great minds can be mislead and lead to misfortune .I liked one part when the gallant of Sati is described. She fought so gallantly that she won over her enemies.Her enemy was proud to have fought her.She won the respect and honour of her enemy What can an soldier ,a warrior can demand !? .Then there are descriptions of Kartik fighting which takes you into the battle and you can imagine the battlefield.Then there the loving,caring and gallant son Ganesh .The Kali ,true form of wrath and anger in woman who had every reason to be angry.Then there is Brihaspati,a true friend who helps the cause of his friend in the shadows and his beloved Tara who truly in love ,gives up everything when she is told of his death. Then there is Parvateshwar ,the man of honour ,real patriotic,man of code who would sacrifice anything for his dharma. The story has so many moral examples that it can transform a person's thought ,as it did mine.Book has strengthened my morals. The love son towards mother ,the responsibility of king ,ruler.
I really liked the climax it really had nice impact.
I am worshiper of Shiva and when i read this story i could recall all the aspects covered of God Shiva. Though book seems religious IT IS NOT .the book is purely fiction inspired from the Hindu mythology and history,the ancient geography and science that reflects in ancient manuscripts in India.

I don't like to reveal the story and ruin the book for reader. Believe me this book will have a lasting effect on you.

The Immortals of Meluha

Shiva Trilogy-

The Immortals of Meluha

Wow!!

This is a book to read.I was longing to read this book. From Shiva -trilogy .,I read 2nd part i.e The secret of Nagas initially. Though being a a sequel to 1st part it was a independent book itself. Now ,when i read the first in the series Immortals of Meluha ,i am fan of Mr.Amish  for writing such an awesome book series.

This book covered all the fantastic storiies to intrigue me and kept me glued to the book .I had to finish the book .I read like bookworm,finished in a day .Just loved it.Now eagerly want to read third in the series.

This book has a very nice introduction to the legend Shiva. The geographical regions described ,the king and kingdoms ,way of living ,education system ,varna system and structure of society all relate to ancient history of India. Indians must have read ,heard stories of ancient India from their grannys ,well i'm a lucky one to have this experience :) . Now while reading the book ,those stories ans characters reflected back on me but in total new picture. Characters used are so much into our minds that i didn't have to put in lot of efforts to imagine them.The Shiva, Sati, Parveteshwar and their dressing styles ,,well we all have seen Ramayana and Mahabharata in India at some time in television or movie. So just amazing. while reading i could visualize the scenes as watching movie .

My recommendation is that do read this book .It's awesome book .The book is purely fictional and does not encourage any religious motives.It's for pure reading and fun .For long we have read vampires ,werewolves and magic world novels  here's some original Desi stuff worthy reading.(superlike) .

Book covers our ancient indian education system ,the true Varna (caste) system ,rich heritage and architecture. This book though it's fictional ,it has some true facts that will give you every reason to be proud of Ancient Indian and we being the heir of India. 

Book has story of making of Tibetan Barbarian into Mahadev(God of gods). It's story of how a person did so great deeds that it could be done only by Almighty God .His deeds speak for him .The romantic description of  meeting of Sati and Shiva  is awesome and fun over marijuana (Weed) with friends .This book has showed every way the God Shiva has been described, creator,destroyer,angry,romantic. Don't forget the "Natraj" ,Shiva is considered god of Dance .The description of Shiva dancing is awesome.
The caring nature of a lover ,husband ,pride of a warrior is very well reflected through the story.

And I must complement on the Book Cover though i dont judge book by it's cover  but this one really intrigued me to check out the book.

I dont want to reveal the story ,to ruin your experience ...read it ..enjoy it ..It's worth it :)

The Secret Of Nagas

Shiva Trilogy 2

THE SECRET OF THE
NAGAS
-Amish

Wow that was an awesome book."Shiva trilogy 2 : The Secret of the Nagas" .The characterization from the hindu mythology makes it even  more interesting. The Shiva,Ganesha,Sati, Kartik, Kritika, Vasudev,Parshuram,the kingdoms of Ayodhya,Swadeep,the cities Kashi,the forests of Dandak,the mystical floating forest of Sundarbans .Although this book is completely fictional but then again it has so many events and examples that relate to Hindu mythology.It gives you the feeling that you actually reading a mythology text say Shivgranth .Fact is we have born and brought up witnessing these mythological events in form of stories,movies and TV serials .While reading the book i could relate the characters and visualize them which made it even more interesting. The story is very innovative and i really appreciate the author for this.The book keeps you hooked to it ,i finished the book in around twelve hours that too because i had to go for dinner and lunch or i would have made it even sooner.There is only one thing ,i was intrigued because i was reading something very new but then again i felt the story went very slow maybe extended and then it ends with a sudden twist.Quite smart of the author now i cant wait to read the next sequel.The illustration at the cover picture is really intriguing ,if at a book store you see it you feel attracted towards it.So another complement for the cover too.Since i read the 2nd part of Shiva trilogy directly ,i may have the feeling of missing something .So i suggest start with the first part . My suggestion just go ahead get book and start reading. :-)
