A Review On The Immortals Of Meluha

One of the biggest success stories of 2010 is the book, The Immortals of Meluha. This book has been on every major best-seller list since its launch and is authored by an Indian writer called Amish Tripathi. Set in the imaginary land of Meluha, The Immortals of Meluha, is a mix of history and mythology with twists and turns at every stage. This country is home to the proud and might Suryavanshi clan. This clan worships Lord Rama and follow his teachings and pride themselves on being the role model society for everyone to follow and emulate. They also are free of illl and disease, thanks to a drink that gives them the gift of immortality.

The land of Meluha, however, is not all that perfect also. The Meluhan people are always on the brink of war with their neighbours from the land of Swadeep, called the Chandravanshis. These two clans are exactly opposite to each other in every aspect possible. The Swadeepans love to live in chaos where nothing is set by rules while the Meluhans hate this.

Another major problem being faced by the Meluhans is the terrorist activites being carried out by the evil Nagas from the South. These dangerous Nagas escape soon after carrying out a terrorist activity and so far, the Meluhans have no answer how to tackle them.

It is at this point in the novel that the readers are introduced to Shiva, the main character in the book who is a nomadic warrior from the mountains of Tibet. He has escaped to Meluha along with his entire clan. Shiva, though, is unaware of his destiny and the fact that he is the person chosen by the Gods to bring peace to the land of Meluha.

This book, has captured the imagination of readers all over, thanks to its amazing plot that blends mythology and history in a beautiful manner. The first book in the Shiva Trilogy is The Immortals of Meluha while the second book is titled as The Secret of the Nagas. These books are a must read for every Indian and for those who love a nice fantasy book.

This amazing book can be bought at any of the leading bookstores all across the county. However, for those of you looking for a discount, you should purchase this from an online retailer as they offer maximum discount on The Immortals of Meluha.
