The story of a man
whose fate led him to be considered a God. The mythical story of Shiva is
brought into a new perspective in The Immortals of Meluha, the first in a
fantasy trilogy.
Summary Of The Book:
The Oath of the Vayuputras is the final book of the Shiva Trilogy. In the
earlier books of the trilogy, Shiva finds out that the Nagas are not his
enemies and joins hands with them to reach the root of all evil. This book will
have answers to ‘the Neelkanth’s’ questions about his fate, the choices he made
previously and karma.
Further, in the concluding book of the trilogy, Shiva reaches Panchavati, the
capital of Naga where he will come face to face with his greatest enemy. Will
he win the battle over his wicked enemies, who are out to destroy him and his
legacy?
The Oath of the Vayuputras will also reveal the reason of Shiva’s close friend
Brahaspati’s disappearance and reappearance at the end of the second book, The
Secret of the Nagas. Further the relationship between Daksha, the king of
Meluha and the mysterious temple priests will also be exposed in this last part
of the trilogy. Shiva seeks helps from the Vayuputras in the quest to conquer
all evil.
The great warrior will encounter the real intentions of some characters he
deemed to be close to him. Some new characters will add that extra vitality to
the entire plot, especially Shiva’s greatest enemy whose name sends shivers
down the spines of many great warriors.
An interesting journey of a warrior who is turned into a God by his followers
because of his deeds and war against the evil, this book is sure to have its
readers’ full attention. A good read which will make one reflect on their
actions, this book like the two earlier books of the trilogy focuses on
philosophy, religion and the never ending battle between the good and the evil.
