Story
The story of the Ramayana had been told innumerable times. The enthralling story of Rama, the incarnation of God, who slew Ravana, the evil demon of darkness, is known to every Indian. And in the pages of history, as always, it is the version told by the victors that lives on. The voice of the vanquished remains lost in silence. But what if Ravana and his people had a different story to tell? The story of the Ravanayana had never been told. Asura is the epic tale of the vanquished Asura people, a story that has been cherished by the oppressed outcastes of India for 3,000 years.

Story
Hi, I'm Keshav, and my life is screwed. I hate my job and my girlfriend left me. Ah, the beautiful Zara. Zara is from Kashmir. She is a Muslim. And did I tell you my family is a bit, well, traditional? Anyway, leave that. Zara and I broke up four years ago. She moved on. I didn't. I drank every night to forget her, I called, I messaged, and stalked her on social media. She just ignored me. However, that night, on the eve of her birthday, Zara messaged me. She called me over, like old times, to her hostel room 105.

Story
A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson's fascinating and humorous quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization. He takes subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry, and particle physics, and aims to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. In the company of some extraordinary scientists, Bill Bryson reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

In Meri Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary listener. His unique approach - thematic rather than verse-by-verse - makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible.In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self.

Publisher's Summary
Without the darkness, light has no purpose.
Without the villain, what would the gods do?
India, 3400 BCE.
A land in tumult, poverty and chaos. Most people suffer quietly. A few rebel. Some fight for a better world. Some for themselves. Some don’t give a damn. Raavan. Fathered by one of the most illustrious sages of the time. Blessed by the Gods with talents beyond all. Cursed by fate to be tested to the extremes.
A formidable teenage pirate, he is filled with equal parts courage, cruelty and fearsome resolve. A resolve to be a giant among men, to conquer, plunder and seize the greatness that he thinks is his right.
A man of contrasts, of brutal violence and scholarly knowledge. A man who will love without reward and kill without remorse.
This exhilarating third book of the Ram Chandra series sheds light on Ravaan, the king of Lanka. And the light shines on darkness of the darkest kind. Is he the greatest villain in history or just a man in a dark place all the time?
Listen to the epic tale of one of the most complex, violent, passionate and accomplished men of all time.

waste of my precious credit
Here's a numbered list for why this book is really bad. 1. the dialogues are extremely repetitive. if I had a penny for everytime "Raavan raises his hand to stop the conversation" I would be uncle scrooge right now. 2. the plot is extremely nonsensical. Amish now does plot twists for only shock value. Abandoning the theme of the characters and making them behave in the extreme opposite way to what they were throughout the series. 3. ruins the mythological elements of the book by making extremely preachy points about modern day politics. 4. Amish in completely in over his head when it comes to depicting Raavan. he waters down one of the most magnanimous anti heroes to ever exist into a drug and alcohol addicted mess.

Know the story of Ravan from different perspective. To know him you have to first unlearn what you know and learn his stories. Very logically explained events and encounters. Reasoning given through conversation on Dharma, Ayyappa Temple, Sita’s etc birth are excellent. Broadened my horizon. 5 starts for Amish and Sagar Arya ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Poor storyline and mediocre narration
I tend to benchmark fantasy fiction with my favorite author Brandon Sanderson's books and narration of the legendary Michael Kramer. Story: Amish gained a massive popularity for putting a modern take on Hindu legends. In Raavan his formula appears stale and a little underwhelming. He tries to shoehorn some modern technologies in ancient legends to bridge gaps and make the tales a bit more, say, logically palatable. He lost me in this book where he tries to humanize Raavan, showing he could have been a better man but society pushed him to be bad. He tries to rescue the soul of the mythical demon king Raavan's character in his book. He tries to humanize the character of Raavan as a brilliant person who just lost his way due to parental and societal pressures. His character of Kumbhakaran is also of a well meaning, childlike side kick for Raavan v/s the indomitable raakshas that we have known him to be. Amish is also not good at building a deep storyline that can be gripping or getting you involved in an emotional level. His style of writing is yet to mature and evolve from his earlier books. Narration: The narrator does a decent job at voicing the deep baritones of a manly man like Raavan, you can almost believe it is Raavan. Alas, his range doesn't expand much from here. His renditions of Raavan, Kumbhakaran and other male characters is very very similar. He reduces his emotion, assertiveness and volume a bit to match that of a key female character like Vedavathi which again shows the lack of range in his voice acting. tl;dr: A decent storyline and an okay narration to listen to while doing dishes or going on a walk. Not something you will yearn to listen to.

Another Cliff-hanger
Everyone knows the story of Diwali, in where good "Ram" faces off bad "Raavan", but how many of you know the real reason why "Raavan" kidnapped "Sita" and the true image and character of the so call "10 headed demon"? Amish truly brings out this definition of the King of Lanka, with the love, pain and struggle he goes through the years and makes to think twice of the whole "good vs. bad".
