Kurukshetra is the third book in Krishna Udayasankar’s epic mythological fantasy series, the Aryavarta Chronicles.
Summary of the Book
The Aryavarta empire stands on the brink of destruction. Krishna Dwaipayana Vyasa and the Secret Keeper of the Firewrights can do no more than watch as their kin destroy one another on the fields of Kurukshetra. Those very humans who once protected the land have become savages, killing and maiming their own people with abandon. Right in the midst of the torrent stands Govinda Shauri. He has been driven to madness by betrayal and failure, and he has become the greatest enemy that Aryavarta must face. In this climactic end to the series, he will stop at nothing to destroy everything he loves and unleash his might in the belief that humanity will once again rise from the ashes.

* The story telling is very unique and i have to commend the author for the flow and language used.
* Surely, very wel...

Interesting
The Cover: Eye- catching. The first thing that caught my eyes as soon as I received the book is the sentence at the top: The epic as it was never told before.
This book has justified the same.
Author’s note: A beautiful introduction to the book, something one must read without fail before embarking on the journey called ‘Kurukshetra’.
The hierarchy chart and the cast of characters: A wonderful guide necessary to understand quite a lot about the characters and groups that find a ment...

Complete Waste!
story not at all in congruence with the original.
Usage of uncommon/tough English words (at so many places) make it all the more PUT-DOWN-able.
wasted my money on this trilogy.
