didn't meet my expectations

the book started with a great erupting premise, became sluggish midway through and finally ended like an action movie. could have been better.

portrayal of mythology like history.

after shiva trilogy if I loved any book or series is Harappa trilogy.a perfect blend of myth and fiction connecting scriptures with modern thinking.The only thing act like a deterrent was exaggeration of any character ability.
overall it was tight gripping story and will not let anyone leave without completing.

What a waste of time!

Please stop repeating same thing again and again.
There is limited content. Boring story and dull narratives.
