Thank you Divya Narain Upadhyaya for the review copy.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Review

I have read the kindle format of the book and it’s cover is appealing. Rightly guessed from the title it is a mythological fiction. It has 7 stories namely The Cosmic Dance, The Eighth Son, The Battle of Panchvati, The Killing of Keechak, Gangadhar, The Curse of Draupadi and Gautam.

All the stories are derived from epics. The narration is very well done and so is the character development. The myriad of emotions are conveyed in a beautiful manner. Each story has a moral which makes it interesting. The book has plenty of enthusiasm and optimism brimming throughout it’s pages. With lucid language and good vocabulary this book can be easily recommended to anyone.
