After a lot of procrastination, I finally completed all the 3 parts of the Shiva Trilogy, written by Amish Tripathi. Here is my brief review of what I thought about this series and how was my reading experience.
The story is based on an interesting premise. It is a fictional imagination of the story of Lord Shiva, portraying him (and all the other characters / gods) as humans living during the Indus Valley civilization. It’s a story of his transformation from a tribal barbarian to the Mahadev worshiped by the people. The series consists of 3 books and you have to read it all serially to understand the sequence of the story. The story begins somewhere near the Mansarovar Lake, the home of this tribal leader called Shiva who leads his tribe called “Gunas”.
