After coming to know about the exact meaning of HAR HAR MAHADEV and a suspense locked first part I immediately grabbed a copy of the second part of the trilogy and really impressed from the first page of this book.
This book starts from where the first part ends and introduces two really well built characters KALI and GANESH who dominates the almost the entire story and forget not to mention about the beautiful imagination of bringing parashuram as a bandit seeking his destiny.
Of course the book became little dragging at parts though they remained like spots on a full moon . The readers find this book more connected to what our Indian mythology says about lord shiva though the author carefully introduced the new concept of nagas into the story and perfectly unfolded their secret towards the end. Though the secret is revealed the intelligence of the authormakes us wait for the next book at the end of the story.
Personally I felt the lion episodes in the story are just a medium to introduce few important characters into the storyline.
