Do You Ever Feel Burdened by the Past?
From the author of the bestselling Hastinapur series, and of critically acclaimed novels like Nari and Murder in Amaravati, comes a beguiling tale of family, forgiveness and redemption.
Do you ever feel burdened by the past?
Regret? For not learning to play that musical instrument, for not asking out that cute classmate. For putting yourself out there only to be rejected, abandoned.
Grudges? Against a family member’s casual cruelty. A stranger’s passing remark. A friend’s heartlessness.
Shame? For that time they laughed, for that other time they were supposed to laugh but didn’t. For that time they all thought you a fool because they didn’t understand.
Unless you learn to forgive yourself, can you ever look in the mirror with confidence? Can you ever hope to become your truest, best self … the self you know exists within you striving to break free?
This self, this you that deserves to be known, to be understood, to be loved, to be applauded … will you ever become it?
Or are you forever doomed to stumble into your future with fearful steps, forever stained by the past?
In Amnion, Rishabh Dhar faces the same questions. He is flattened by the weight of his twin sister’s suicide. He is falling … he is flailing … he is grappling with guilt …
And when his sister returns exactly on the anniversary of her death, and calls to him, not only must he learn to forgive himself, he must also do it in time to save his mother’s life.
This is your story. A story about family, forgiveness, and letting go.
A story of unshackling yourself from the prison of the past, so that you can march ahead into a free, bountiful future.
Because what could be more important?

If You Buy From Amazon ...
We must tell you that Amnion is available for purchase on Amazon as well. Here is the link:
It is available at the same price as on Sharath Komarraju's store. But since we can't run discounts and offers on Amazon, we cannot offer the Buy One, Get One launch deal for Amazon purchases.
When you buy direct from the author, you will get a Kindle version, an ePUB version, a PDF version and an HTML version. Four different versions. You can read the book on any device, on any app of your choosing - including the Kindle.
If you buy from Amazon, you will be locked into the Kindle ecosystem.
The refund window is much smaller. Getting the book out of Kindle into another app is a hassle.
On top of all that, when you buy direct from the author, you know that all of your money is going to the author. When you buy from Amazon, more than half of what you pay goes into Amazon's pockets.
Still - the choice is yours.
We understand if you're used to buying things on Amazon and would like to order from there.
Just that we won't be able to give you the launch offer.
Questions?
In the great book of time, it is said there is but one word: now.
We know that Amnion will be one of the best novels you read this year. Give it a try. You won't regret it.
