The Skull Rosary is a graphic novel retelling some of the stories of Shiva in the eons before civilization began.
Summary of the Book
Before civilization, Shiva set out to collect five heads to make his rosary. In this book, readers are introduced to a saga in Rudra's life unlike any before or after. These five stories bring alive the lord of death and the afterlife. A daughter's life is forfeit to the fire of jealousy in The King With A Goat's Head. Two powerful gods clash in a battle that will change the world in Prahlad's Dream. A son's desire for his mother's body is unveiled in The Other Woman. The Blind Spot lays bare a blind Asura with a penchant for revenge. And in the finale, a father lusts after his daughter and civilization itself stands broken, letting fly Brahma's Fifth Head.
