Publisher's Summary

Under the shadow of an illustrious father, Sambhaji finds himself thrust into the Maratha-Mughal conflict from a tender age. His mistakes cost him dearly, and when his father suddenly dies and he becomes the chhatrapati, it is as if he has inherited a crown of thorns. In the nine years that follow, he faces a constant battle - internally, as palace intrigues simmer to kill him, and externally, as Aurangzeb descends on the Deccan with full military force. Even Chhatrapati Shivaji had never faced a full-blown Mughal aggression. 

Will he be able to protect the Maratha nation and swaraj that was his father's dream? Will he prove to be a worthy son to his father - in life as well as in death? 

History has been unfair to Sambhaji, but it can't deny that he inspired a generation of Maratha warriors who eventually ensured the end of Aurangzeb's jihad. 

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Sambhaji, the enigma

Sambhaji comes out of the shadow of his legendary father Chakarapati Sivaji to become a legend for himself. Long live Swaraj.

Excellent writing & narration

Excellent writing by author & powerful narration by Ms. Bose. Loved the book. Only one thing in part 2 of the book was Sambhaji’s battles, impossible victories could have been mentioned. He was one of the rare emperors who never lost a battle in his life.
