The Immortals of Meluha: The Shiva Trilogy Book 1

Product Information

That concept is further made implausible by the explanation that women carry a child till 9 months, travel to a place off the main city when they approach labour, give birth and leave empty-handed.

With a plot that is virtually non-existent, characters that are quarter-baked, terrible language and dialogues that range from asinine to absurd, Immortals of Meluha can be best described as a brilliant concept gone complete awry in execution. It received a mixed review from Hindustan Times, where the reviewer was critical of Tripathi's usage of common, everyday language. Amish takes a bunch of Mythical stories, characters, places and weaves them into an excellent plot that moves at a steady pace, holding the reader firmly.

However, Ayurvati finds out that Shiva is the only one devoid of these symptoms and that his throat has turned blue. Shiva wasn’t an all mighty, all powerful god who knew everything, never made any mistakes, never strayed of the path of dharma; he was a hot tempered youth who lead a tribe, smoked marijuana and swore in almost every other thought.There is no plausible reason behind a ruler having the right to keep his/her child but an ordinary person being deprived of their child.

Whether it is a war sequence or a simple conversation, Amish's writing hooked the readers, but I feel there is a lack of suspense.
