After the publication of Asura I came to know about this book this book through my friends. I heard very high about this product and read it immediately.
So here is my review of Asura- The tale of Vanquished:
Readability:
This book is must to read one because we heard many stories and read many stories of Ramayana. But every book that we read and every story that we heard will be in the point of lord Rama but this one is in the point of Ravana. This is the speciality of this book. Anand Neelakantan rocked this story with his writing. very engaging throughout.
Story:
Every individual in this country is very familiar with Ramayana but here the story may alter because it is in the point of Asura Ravana. Sometimes we feel very sorry for the incidents which happen in his life. Though he is villain in this story he is a hero. The story starts with the war with Rama and he dies in that war. Next Ravana narrates the story of his earlier life and how faced his struggles like every human. From there how his life ended in the hands of Rama is remaining story.
Conclusion:
Asura book is full of telling a story in different dimensions. It gives more information regarding Ramayana which everyone doesnt know. So I strongly recommend everyone to read this book.
