Welcome to the riverside village of Amaravati, where the Krishna's murmur is always heard. The well-known hostess, Padmavati, is found dead at the feet of Mother Kali in the temple one morning, and it falls to Krishna Shastri, the village priest, to find the killer.

Longlisted for the Commonwealth Book Prize.

(Check out the Murder in Amaravati Product Page for more info.)

- Banquet on the Dead

Kauveramma, the head of the family, does not like water. Nor does she know how to swim. So when her body is found in the well, it comes as a jolt to everyone in the house. Inspector Valmiki Nagarajan is on the case, but he might need the help of an old friend to crack this one.

(Check out the Banquet on the Dead Product Page for more info.)

- The Crows of Agra

The year is 1650 A.D. Barely into his sixteenth year, Akbar is all set to ascend the Mughal throne. But there are forces at work in his family that want to keep him at bay. It is only after he meets the imitable Mahesh Das from Tikawanpur that Akbar learns how to safeguard his inheritance.

(Check out the Crows of Agra Product Page for more info.)

- The Tree Bears Witness

When Azgher Abbasi sees a murder take place between the two mango trees in the emperor's garden, he is convinced that a spectral force is behind it all. Birbal himself is stumped by the facts of the case - how might a man be killed by an invisible marauder? Or is the actual explanation simpler than it looks?

No Brainer for Fiction Lovers

I couldn't resist giving "The Psychological Suspense Bundle" a try when I saw it included the award-nominated "Nari." Both Ramya and Nari give such convincing testimonies that I found myself constantly questioning who to believe. This novel is definitely worth all the praise it has received. I had never heard of Sharath Komarraju before, but the beautiful covers caught my eye, and I'm so glad they did. Highly recommended! If you enjoy suspense and thriller novels.

Fresh Eyes on Bhishma

Sharath Komarraju's contemplative approach to character analysis is second to none, especially in the Bhishma guide that compelled me to examine this complex patriarch with fresh eyes and truly empathize with his plight. The author's conversational style creates an intimate connection. Though I initially hesitated because I'd never heard of Sharath Komarraju before, the 30-day guarantee gave me confidence to explore these 40+ hours of enlightening content. Some of the lesser known characters seemed like page-fillers, but the main characters are very well done.

Destiny's Threads

"The Rise of Hastinapur" is my favorite of the trilogy, particularly in how Gandhari's story is portrayed with such compelling depth, laying crucial groundwork for future events in the Hastinapur universe. Amba's story arc is also begun with remarkable skill, and I find myself curious to see how Sharath takes it forward. The language in the books is evocative without being too flowery - if you know what I mean. Thoroughly enjoyed these books!

Exceptional

While all three novels are exceptional, 'Nari' stands out with its hard-hitting language that some might find uncomfortable, but the topic of rape and sexual abuse requires such an unflinching approach to truly convey the weight of the subject matter. Equally impressive is the quiet foreshadowing and imagery of the painting in 'Amnion', which carries the story forward with subtle hints. Sharath''s writing is evocative, bringing to life not just the characters but the psychological landscapes they inhabit. Also appreciate the printable PDF facility, which is more useful than I thought at first glance.

Village life come alive

The politics of village life in "Murder in Amaravati" was beautifully captured, and the little details and immersion was spot on. As someone who adores Agatha Christie's meticulous plotting, I found Sharath Komarraju's work to be equally captivating. The riverside village setting on the bank of the Krishna comes alive through his prose. Before this bundle, I'd only heard of Sharath but never tried his work. This affordable bundle seemed like the perfect introduction. If you enjoy crime fiction that makes you think, these are perfect!

Awesome Ganga!

My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur. It seems it's the longest of three as well, so the author takes enough time to develop each of the three characters. Each story is different to the others in tone and style, and in atmosphere. It almost felt like I got three novels for the price of one within that one book. I especially enjoyed the final Epilogue that brings the three strands of story together. Ganga is awesome! My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur.

Bhishma and Drona

Of all the characters in the omnibus, I like the care and empathy that Sharath lends to the Bhishma and Drona characters. These are usually on the fringes, and very rarely do you see their characters and motivations explored. The leaps of logic that Sharath makes are always well thought out. The hypotheticals and thought experiments are lovely. Can see myself getting lost in these.

Winds of Hastinapur was slow to start off with - I did not know what was going on for a few pages. But once I caught on to the time and place, it was a great ride!

Ingenious Plotting!

Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader. I liked three of these puzzles more than the fourth. Banquet on the Dead did not appeal to me... I could guess the solution from a few pages away, and once that happened, I could spot all the red herrings too. Your mileage may vary. The other three books are great. Especially Tree Bears Witness - ingenious plotting! Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader.

Deep yet Accessible

What sets these guides apart is Sharath's contemplative approach to character analysis—he doesn't just explain relationships but illuminates motivations with remarkable precision. I particularly appreciate how he clearly distinguishes facts from personal interpretation, allowing readers to form their own conclusions. Very satisfied!

Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me. I was going to give it a three or four star, but the final chapter made it a five. Definitely checking out more of Sharath Komarraju's books. Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me.

Worth Reading

I didn't even know that there were 100 Parvas in the Mahabharata before, let alone their names! The instant download feature meant I could dive into these treasures immediately, while the multi-device compatibility ensures I'm never without these books. Very happy with the purchase.

Village life come alive

The politics of village life in "Murder in Amaravati" was beautifully captured, and the little details and immersion was spot on. As someone who adores Agatha Christie's meticulous plotting, I found Sharath Komarraju's work to be equally captivating. The riverside village setting on the bank of the Krishna comes alive through his prose. Before this bundle, I'd only heard of Sharath but never tried his work. This affordable bundle seemed like the perfect introduction. If you enjoy crime fiction that makes you think, these are perfect!

Awesome Ganga!

My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur. It seems it's the longest of three as well, so the author takes enough time to develop each of the three characters. Each story is different to the others in tone and style, and in atmosphere. It almost felt like I got three novels for the price of one within that one book. I especially enjoyed the final Epilogue that brings the three strands of story together. Ganga is awesome! My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur.

Bhishma and Drona

Of all the characters in the omnibus, I like the care and empathy that Sharath lends to the Bhishma and Drona characters. These are usually on the fringes, and very rarely do you see their characters and motivations explored. The leaps of logic that Sharath makes are always well thought out. The hypotheticals and thought experiments are lovely. Can see myself getting lost in these.

Winds of Hastinapur was slow to start off with - I did not know what was going on for a few pages. But once I caught on to the time and place, it was a great ride!

Ingenious Plotting!

Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader. I liked three of these puzzles more than the fourth. Banquet on the Dead did not appeal to me... I could guess the solution from a few pages away, and once that happened, I could spot all the red herrings too. Your mileage may vary.

Excellent reads! I'm a long-time crime fiction reader, and I am impressed by the variety on offer in these four books.

Murder in Amaravati is a slow-burn, Banquet on the Dead is urban and fast-paced, Crows of Agra is a historical, and Tree Bears Witness is an impossible murder. Something for everyone.

Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me. I was going to give it a three or four star, but the final chapter made it a five. Definitely checking out more of Sharath Komarraju's books. Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me.

Worth Reading

Definitely worth reading. I generally don't like crime fiction all that much, but this one kept me reading through the day. Something about the Malgudi-like atmosphere that is present in Amaravati. I like Krishna Shastri, but identify more with Venkat Reddy. Lovely little story. Definitely worth reading.

No Brainer for Fiction Lovers

I couldn't resist giving "The Psychological Suspense Bundle" a try when I saw it included the award-nominated "Nari." Both Ramya and Nari give such convincing testimonies that I found myself constantly questioning who to believe. This novel is definitely worth all the praise it has received.

As a devoted reader of mystery novels, I found Sharath Komarraju's "Murder in Amaravati" to be particularly evocative, especially in his meticulous portrayal of the Kali temple and the authentic description of Krishna Shastri's morning rituals in the opening chapter, which transported me completely into the riverside village. Having heard of Sharath Komarraju through his acclaimed Hastinapur Series but never actually reading his work before, this bundle at such a reasonable price point seemed like the perfect introduction.

Fresh Eyes on Bhishma

Sharath Komarraju's contemplative approach to character analysis is second to none, especially in the Bhishma guide that compelled me to examine this complex patriarch with fresh eyes and truly empathize with his plight. The author's conversational style creates an intimate connection. Though I initially hesitated because I'd never heard of Sharath Komarraju before, the 30-day guarantee gave me confidence to explore these 40+ hours of enlightening content. Some of the lesser known characters seemed like page-fillers, but the main characters are very well done.

Destiny's Threads

"The Rise of Hastinapur" is my favorite of the trilogy, particularly in how Gandhari's story is portrayed with such compelling depth, laying crucial groundwork for future events in the Hastinapur universe. Amba's story arc is also begun with remarkable skill, and I find myself curious to see how Sharath takes it forward. The language in the books is evocative without being too flowery - if you know what I mean. Thoroughly enjoyed these books!

Exceptional

While all three novels are exceptional, 'Nari' stands out with its hard-hitting language that some might find uncomfortable, but the topic of rape and sexual abuse requires such an unflinching approach to truly convey the weight of the subject matter. Equally impressive is the quiet foreshadowing and imagery of the painting in 'Amnion', which carries the story forward with subtle hints. Sharath''s writing is evocative, bringing to life not just the characters but the psychological landscapes they inhabit. Also appreciate the printable PDF facility, which is more useful than I thought at first glance.

Worth Reading

Definitely worth reading. I generally don't like crime fiction all that much, but this one kept me reading through the day. Something about the Malgudi-like atmosphere that is present in Amaravati. I like Krishna Shastri, but identify more with Venkat Reddy. Lovely little story. Definitely worth reading.

Having heard of Sharath Komarraju through his acclaimed Hastinapur Series but never actually reading his work before, this bundle at such a reasonable price point seemed like the perfect introduction.

Fresh Eyes on Bhishma

Sharath Komarraju's contemplative approach to character analysis is second to none, especially in the Bhishma guide that compelled me to examine this complex patriarch with fresh eyes and truly empathize with his plight. The author's conversational style creates an intimate connection. Though I initially hesitated because I'd never heard of Sharath Komarraju before, the 30-day guarantee gave me confidence to explore these 40+ hours of enlightening content. Some of the lesser known characters seemed like page-fillers, but the main characters are very well done.

"The Rise of Hastinapur" is my favorite of the trilogy, particularly in how Gandhari's story is portrayed with such compelling depth, laying crucial groundwork for future events in the Hastinapur universe. Amba's story arc is also begun with remarkable skill, and I find myself curious to see how Sharath takes it forward. The language in the books is evocative without being too flowery - if you know what I mean. Thoroughly enjoyed these books!

Exceptional

While all three novels are exceptional, 'Nari' stands out with its hard-hitting language that some might find uncomfortable, but the topic of rape and sexual abuse requires such an unflinching approach to truly convey the weight of the subject matter. Equally impressive is the quiet foreshadowing and imagery of the painting in 'Amnion', which carries the story forward with subtle hints. Sharath''s writing is evocative, bringing to life not just the characters but the psychological landscapes they inhabit. Also appreciate the printable PDF facility, which is more useful than I thought at first glance.

Village life come alive

The politics of village life in "Murder in Amaravati" was beautifully captured, and the little details and immersion was spot on. As someone who adores Agatha Christie's meticulous plotting, I found Sharath Komarraju's work to be equally captivating. The riverside village setting on the bank of the Krishna comes alive through his prose. Before this bundle, I'd only heard of Sharath but never tried his work.

Awesome Ganga!

My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur. It seems it's the longest of three as well, so the author takes enough time to develop each of the three characters. Each story is different to the others in tone and style, and in atmosphere. It almost felt like I got three novels for the price of one within that one book. I especially enjoyed the final Epilogue that brings the three strands of story together. Ganga is awesome! My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur.

Bhishma and Drona

Of all the characters in the omnibus, I like the care and empathy that Sharath lends to the Bhishma and Drona characters. These are usually on the fringes, and very rarely do you see their characters and motivations explored. The leaps of logic that Sharath makes are always well thought out. The hypotheticals and thought experiments are lovely. Can see myself getting lost in these.

Winds of Hastinapur was slow to start off with - I did not know what was going on for a few pages. But once I caught on to the time and place, it was a great ride!

Ingenious Plotting!

Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader. I liked three of these puzzles more than the fourth. Banquet on the Dead did not appeal to me... I could guess the solution from a few pages away, and once that happened, I could spot all the red herrings too. Your mileage may vary. The other three books are great. Especially Tree Bears Witness - ingenious plotting! Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader.

What sets these guides apart is Sharath's contemplative approach to character analysis—he doesn't just explain relationships but illuminates motivations with remarkable precision. I particularly appreciate how he clearly distinguishes facts from personal interpretation, allowing readers to form their own conclusions. Very satisfied!

Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me. I was going to give it a three or four star, but the final chapter made it a five. Definitely checking out more of Sharath Komarraju's books. Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me.

Awesome Ganga!

My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur. It seems it's the longest of three as well, so the author takes enough time to develop each of the three characters. Each story is different to the others in tone and style, and in atmosphere. It almost felt like I got three novels for the price of one within that one book. I especially enjoyed the final Epilogue that brings the three strands of story together. Ganga is awesome! My favourite among the three books is the second - Rise of Hastinapur.

Bhishma and Drona

Of all the characters in the omnibus, I like the care and empathy that Sharath lends to the Bhishma and Drona characters. These are usually on the fringes, and very rarely do you see their characters and motivations explored. The leaps of logic that Sharath makes are always well thought out. The hypotheticals and thought experiments are lovely. Can see myself getting lost in these.

Enjoyed all six books!

Winds of Hastinapur was slow to start off with - I did not know what was going on for a few pages. But once I caught on to the time and place, it was a great ride! Rise of Hastinapur and Queens of Hastinapur were better written, I thought. Almost like the author has found his voice. Enjoyed all three books!

Ingenious Plotting!

Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader. I liked three of these puzzles more than the fourth. Banquet on the Dead did not appeal to me... I could guess the solution from a few pages away, and once that happened, I could spot all the red herrings too. Your mileage may vary. The other three books are great. Especially Tree Bears Witness - ingenious plotting! Four murder mysteries in a bundle is a wonderful gift for someone like me, who is an avid crime fiction reader.

Excellent reads! I'm a long-time crime fiction reader, and I am impressed by the variety on offer in these four books. Even the two Birbal books are dissimilar enough from each other to keep the reader's interest. Murder in Amaravati is a slow-burn, Banquet on the Dead is urban and fast-paced, Crows of Agra is a historical, and Tree Bears Witness is an impossible murder. Something for everyone.

Okay, I must admit - the ending elevated this book for me. I was going to give it a three or four star, but the final chapter made it a five.

Worth Reading

No Brainer for Fiction Lovers

I couldn't resist giving "The Psychological Suspense Bundle" a try when I saw it included the award-nominated "Nari." Both Ramya and Nari give such convincing testimonies that I found myself constantly questioning who to believe. This novel is definitely worth all the praise it has received.

Hooked

As a devoted reader of mystery novels, I found Sharath Komarraju's "Murder in Amaravati" to be particularly evocative, especially in his meticulous portrayal of the Kali temple and the authentic description of Krishna Shastri's morning rituals in the opening chapter, which transported me completely into the riverside village. Having heard of Sharath Komarraju through his acclaimed Hastinapur Series but never actually reading his work before, this bundle at such a reasonable price point seemed like the perfect introduction.

Fresh Eyes on Bhishma

Sharath Komarraju's contemplative approach to character analysis is second to none, especially in the Bhishma guide that compelled me to examine this complex patriarch with fresh eyes and truly empathize with his plight. The author's conversational style creates an intimate connection. Though I initially hesitated because I'd never heard of Sharath Komarraju before, the 30-day guarantee gave me confidence to explore these 40+ hours of enlightening content. Some of the lesser known characters seemed like page-fillers, but the main characters are very well done.

Destiny's Threads

"The Rise of Hastinapur" is my favorite of the trilogy, particularly in how Gandhari's story is portrayed with such compelling depth, laying crucial groundwork for future events in the Hastinapur universe. Amba's story arc is also begun with remarkable skill, and I find myself curious to see how Sharath takes it forward. The language in the books is evocative without being too flowery - if you know what I mean. Thoroughly enjoyed these books!

Exceptional

While all three novels are exceptional, 'Nari' stands out with its hard-hitting language that some might find uncomfortable, but the topic of rape and sexual abuse requires such an unflinching approach to truly convey the weight of the subject matter. Equally impressive is the quiet foreshadowing and imagery of the painting in 'Amnion', which carries the story forward with subtle hints. Sharath''s writing is evocative, bringing to life not just the characters but the psychological landscapes they inhabit. Also appreciate the printable PDF facility, which is more useful than I thought at first glance.

Village life come alive

The politics of village life in "Murder in Amaravati" was beautifully captured, and the little details and immersion was spot on.
