The Immortals of Meluha-Shiva Trilogy 1
1900 BC. In what modern Indians mistakenly call the Indus Valley Civilisation. The inhabitants of that period called it the land of Meluha a near perfect empire created many centuries earlier by Lord Ram, one of the greatest monarchs that ever lived. This once proud empire and its Suryavanshi rulers face severe perils as its primary river, the revered Saraswati, is slowly drying to extinction. They also face devastating terrorist attacks from the east, the land of the Chandravanshis. To make matters worse, the Chandravanshis appear to have allied with the Nagas, an ostracised and sinister race of deformed humans with astonishing martial skills. The only hope for the Suryavanshis is an ancient legend: When evil reaches epic proportions, when all seems lost, when it appears that your enemies have triumphed, a hero will emerge. Is the rough-hewn Tibetan immigrant Shiva, really that hero? And does he want to be that hero at all? Drawn suddenly to his destiny, by duty as well as by love, will Shiva lead the Suryavanshi vengeance and destroy evil?

ભારતના સૌથી લોકપ્રિય યુવા લેખક અમીશ ત્રિપાઠીની ‘રામચંદ્ર’ સીરીઝનું બીજું પુસ્તક એટલે "સીતા" હવે ઉપલબ્ધ છે... આ પુસ્તકમાં ઈ.સ. પૂર્વે ૩૪૦૦નાં ભારતની કાલ્પનિક કથા. આ સમયે ગરીબી અને શોષણથી ખદબદી રહેલાં ભારતની પ્રજા પોતાના શાસકોને ધિક્કારે છે. સમગ્ર સમાજ અરાજકતાને આરે ઉભો છે. લંકાનો રાજા રાવણ વધુ ને વધુ તાકાતવાન બનતો જાય છે અને દુર્દેવી સપ્ત સિંધુ ફરતે તેની ભીંસ વધતી જાય છે. ભારતના તે સમયના બે શક્તિશાળી કબીલાઓ આ પરિસ્થિતિમાંથી પ્રજાને ઉગારી શકે એવા તારણહારની શોધ આદરે છે. છેવટે ખેતરમાં ત્યજાયેલી એક બાળકી મળી આવે છે. લોહીતરસ્યા વરુઓના ટોળાથી એક ગીધ તેનું રક્ષણ કરી રહ્યું હતું. કારણ કે એ કોઈ સામાન્ય બાળકી નથી. એ છે સીતા.
Raam by Amish Tripathi (Part 1)
અયોધ્યા વિભાજનોથી નબળું પડી ગયું છે. એક ભયંકર યુદ્ધની કિંમત તે ચૂકવી રહ્યું છે. નુકસાન બહુ મોટું થયું છે. લંકાના રાક્ષસ રાજા પરાજિતો પર પોતાનું સામ્રાજ્ય નથી સ્થાપતા. તેના બદલે તે ત્યાં પોતાનો વેપાર સ્થાપી દે છે. આખા સામ્રાજ્યમાંથી ધન ચૂસી લેવામાં આવે છે. સપ્તાસીન્ધુની પ્રજા ગરીબી, હતાશા ને દુરાચારણમાં ગરકાવ થઇ ગઈ છે. તે પ્રજા એક એવા નાયક માટે વલખે છે કે જે તેમને આ કળણમાંથી બહાર ખેંચી કાઢે. તેમને ક્યાં જાણ છે કે એવો એક નાયક તેમની વચ્ચે જ રહેલો છે જેને તે બધા લોકો જાણે છે. એક સંતપ્ત અને દેશનિકાલ પામેલો રાજકુમાર. એવો રાજકુમાર જેનો તેમણે વિરોધ કર્યો હતો. એ રાજકુમાર કે જેનું નામ હતું રામ. શું લોકોએ તેમના પર લગાવેલા લાંચનને રામ દૂર કરી શકશે? શું સીતા માટેના તેમના પ્રેમને કારણે તે આ સંઘર્ષમાંથી પાર ઉતરશે?
Midnights Children
Saleem Sinai is born at the stroke of midnight on August 15, 1947, the very moment of India’s independence. Greeted by fireworks displays, cheering crowds, and Prime Minister Nehru himself, Saleem grows up to learn the ominous consequences of this coincidence. His every act is mirrored and magnified in events that sway the course of national affairs; his health and well-being are inextricably bound to those of his nation; his life is inseparable, at times indistinguishable, from the history of his country. Perhaps most remarkable are the telepathic powers linking him with India’s 1,000 other “midnight’s children,” all born in that initial hour and endowed with magical gifts. This novel is at once a fascinating family saga and an astonishing evocation of a vast land and its people–a brilliant incarnation of the universal human comedy. Twenty-five years after its publication, Midnight’ s Children stands apart as both an epochal work of fiction and a brilliant performance by one of the great literary voices of our time.
