“Book Descriptions: Ravana, the mythical antagonist from the Hindu epic Ramayana has been subjected to heterogeneous perceptions and interpretations over the decades. Hailed as the most revered devotee of Lord Shiva and a phenomenal monarch, he is still the villain for us for the sole reason that he stood against the virtuous Lord Rama who is the epitome of righteousness.
In the traces of history and of all times, every villain has always been a hero to his beloved. Had Ravana ever been such a hero to someone? Had it been so, what might have befallen when the majestically muscular yet insensitively raw Ravana chanced upon romance? The love must have been beyond any trait of doubt, incandescent and fiercely passionate enough to drive him undergo the metamorphosing phase of being a mere soldier to an absolute emperor to win his lady-love.
This novel attests that every tale of romance need not have a fairy tale ending to get inscribed in the leaves of eternity. Blended with a perfect mix of philosophy, facts and fiction, this novel inspired by mythological extracts presents Ravana in a new, unconventional yet imperial fashion.” DRIVE
