I have finished the Immortals of Meluha in one day and it compel me to buy and read the second part instantly. I stop using social media just to read the thriller of this story. I lost myself in this book i can feel that i am with Mahadeva roaming around the city of meluha and Swadeep. Now we are goin to entered in Branga.
You rocks Mr. Amish u will be my favourite writer till i live my life.
Har Har mahadeva

Two times this book surprised me once when it was revealed that its not Parshuram's father who ask him to kill his mother and secondly when Naga queen and lord of people turned out to be lord Ganesha and Maa Kali.
This book is really very interesting my only worry is how much of the facts are close to reality obviously we dont know what actually happened in past but we should always try to go as near as possible to the truth.
Problem is most of us " the current generation" dont read sacred and ancient texts hence what we saw in Mahabharath or Ramayan or Shiva stories on television became reality for us now these books are bringing new point of view of same stories and coming generation will believe these to be true hence its a great responsibility for writer to be as close to the truth as possible.
May Almighty bless you with wisdom...

The first book in the series tempted me to go for the second one immediately after I finished it. The writing is at a pace in which you'll enjoy every story and every incident. The secret can be guessed by the time you progress through the story. The most loveable aspect is that Amish neatly weaves his own perceptions of the story in the actual story we already know. The character of Sati is shown to be very intense and passionate. The bonus track of parvateshwar-anandmayi is a 🍒 cherry on top. If you love mythology you'll freely appreciate both-the story and author.
I was so excited to read this but i'm waiting to start part 3.

After his debut novel author, Amish took my breath away with his second part of the Shiva Trilogy.
It is an absolute delight to read. It compels us for introspection.
Without wrong, there is no existence of the right. And both are inside us. With his words and with his character in the book, he taught us how to be calm and take any decision forward by learning from our past mistake.
He wonderfully narrated that everyone should know all there is to know before reaching conclusions. It helps us to take a well informed and impartial decision.
Eagerly moving to the last part of shiv trilogy.

The writer has read too much comics and had twisted history of different regions and different time into one amateur novel. He thinks unnecessary tragedy and near Shiva's original narrative will be liked by readers. Just poor writing and those dishing out compliments for this series like - celebrities, shows that either they have not read his crap or are brain dead.
No doubt the author made tons of money by duplication of ancient and historical texts. Shame.

Very confusing from start. Not for non Hindu who want to learn more.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 August 2018Verified Purchase
I have watched Mahabharata but this was totally confusing. Only other example I can think of is Gardens of the Moon, from Malazan Book of the Fallen, some readers find that very confusing, they say they are dropped in middle of action, rightattge deep end of the story and they have to learn how to swim. But that ztiryu folds very beautifully, this one doesn't.
I went back to Amazon page a number of times to make sure that this was the first book in trilogy, it is and being the Kindle version, it must be true but I couldn't be certain, even after reading ten percent of the story, there is no explanation as to who Shiva is or how he got his great fighting skills, even basics like who is parents are or his wife ( she was part of the action , then she vanished as we move on). Names and places are very confusing to read and they come thick and fast and one really finds it hard to make sense of it all.
Another disturbing fact is how the temple at Ayodhya is mentioned again and again and a king even donates huge tribute towards its construction. It doesn't really concerned me one way or the other but this is totally wrong, to treat such an inflammatory issue in such a careless way was telling, I was reading the story so I could learn more about Hinduism but I kept feeling like I was looking in through a frosty window, I felt like it not written for new comers, the author was preaching to the converted. I decided to give up as after 10 percent and that is very annoying, I still don't know anything new about Shiva, the mortal man or the Hindu god or avatar etc or who his enemies are or what both sides were doing.
I had to stop, don't feel like going back, I have already bought the book twice and returned it as it didn't make much sense of it at all.
Some needs to write a prequel to the story, because the story didn't make much sense but there were some decent action scenes but obviously Shiva wins, every time.

Nice book. Impressive storyline and perspective towards mythology.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 August 2012Verified Purchase
It is a very novel and interesting perspective towards Hindu mythology. The Author's take on the concepts and characters is different from whatever I had heard before; but in a nice way. That said, I should also mention that the narration is a bit colloquial. The author has accepted that his English was 'pedestrian' and the editor helped him out. I must say the editor did not do a brilliant job. Also, the author's understanding of animal behaviour is limited, I suppose. Perhaps he should watch more of the Discovery and the National Geographic channels :) Not that it affects the story in any way, but to an animal lover like me, it just spoils the flavour. Apart from that, I really enjoyed both the books of the trilogy and am waiting for the third one. Happy reading.

Good but not as good at the first book.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 August 2015Verified Purchase
A good book spoiled a bit by unnecessary characters who do nothing for the plot. Also there's A LOT of unnecessary engineering detail that the reader can do without, like we don't need to know how to build a ship! Overall though the book is a good read, a few twists and surprises to keep us interested.
