1900 BC. In what contemporary Indians erroneously refer to as the Indus Valley Civilisation.
The people of that era designated it as the land of Meluha—a nearly flawless empire established many centuries prior by Lord Ram, one of the most illustrious monarchs in history.
This once-magnificent empire and its Suryavanshi rulers are confronted with grave dangers as their principal river, the venerated Saraswati, is gradually diminishing towards extinction. Additionally, they are subjected to devastating terrorist assaults from the east, the territory of the Chandravanshis. To exacerbate the situation, the Chandravanshis seem to have formed an alliance with the Nagas, a marginalized and malevolent race of deformed humans possessing remarkable martial abilities.
The sole hope for the Suryavanshis lies in an ancient prophecy: 'When evil reaches monumental levels, when all appears lost, when it seems that your adversaries have prevailed, a hero will arise.'
Is the rugged Tibetan immigrant Shiva truly that hero?
And does he even desire to assume that role?
Suddenly compelled towards his fate, driven by both duty and love, will Shiva spearhead the Suryavanshi retribution and vanquish evil?
This marks the inaugural book in a trilogy centered on Shiva, the ordinary man whose karma transformed him into our Mahadev, the God of Gods. About the author
