Product Description
...it is the will of the Goddess that we see the shape of our paths only after we have walked them, as we turn and look over our shoulders. When we look ahead, we only see the thick mist of time, shrouding us from the future, not because it is yet to reveal itself, but because it is yet to form...
Damaghosha, the king of Chedi, has scuttled the warships of Mathura. He now holds dominion over the Yamuna. Queen Devaki has done much for the city in the absence of Krishna and Balarama, but now matters have come to a head.
Damaghosha is working under orders from Jarasandha. He has the throne of Mathura in his sights. He is ruthless, cunning, patient.
Stripped of all allies, overpowered by a strong enemy, two abject choices face Krishna: surrender and become a vassal state, or fight to the death in a hopeless war.
Or perhaps there is a third choice after all...
This sequel toĀ The King of Mathura tells the tale of how the foundations were laid for the building of the mythical city of Dwaraka.
Sharath Komarraju beautifully breathes life once again into the silences that permeate the epic we know so well. If you're a mythology or fantasy fan, this is a must-read.

Highly recommended for lovers of mythological fiction, and for that matter any kind of fiction. I loved how the characters of the Mahabharata came alive in these stories! My favourite was the Ganga and Satyavati narratives in the first book. Hope to read more from Sharath in the future.
I had read some of Sharath Komarraju's earlier work, but never got around to reading his Hastinapur series. So when I saw an ad that they were available as a bundle, I jumped at it. What I like most about Sharat's novels is how real the characters seem. Their troubles, their lives, their journeys. Definitely worth a read!
I thought it was an exaggeration when I saw an ad for these books and claimed they would be the best books I would read this year. But now I see that it's not at all. Of the six books, I liked the second three the most. I especially loved Song of Vrindavan. The bonus books on Kunti and Gandhari helped give me a lot of background material that helped me understand the novels better. Recommended to everyone!
If you're someone who is tired of Chetan Bhagat and Durjoy Datta style books, these will be a welcome change. Not only does Sharath Komarraju give you a fresh take on a great story, but the amount of depth and empathy he gives the characters is something to see. You may agree or disagree with some of the internal messages in the books, but you cannot quarrel with how deeply they immerse you into their world. First class!
I had not heard of the author before, so I first got the first book. I liked it so much that I got the entire set. I also have the bonus bundle of Character Guides. Such a wealth of information. Now I want to try all of Sharath Komarraju's books!
