Spikes up your curiosity about Pradyumna. 5 stars.
Reviewer Nikita Jhanglani on Amazon:
The story starts off well. It does good in spiking up your curiosity about Pradyumna and his circumstances. The story moves ahead at a decent pace, revealing all about Pradyumna, his reality, and his heroic strengths in a gradual manner. Pradyumna’s story and the characters that are introduced along with it have been weaved with the known mythology really well. This was one thing that I absolutely loved about the way Usha has written her book.
Towards the end, however, the focus of the story shifts from Pradyumna. Not that the story becomes less intriguing or less interesting in any way. The book ends with an incident that has Krishna at the centre stage. I am, however, going to reiterate here that this doesn’t make the story any less intriguing. The story is filled with very interesting episodes of mythology and Usha’s writing is elegant.
Usha was a celebrated author much before I heard about her, her first book,The Madras Mangler, steadily climbing up the bestseller charts. After reading Pradyumna, I know why.
And now, for the icing on the cake! The book has a sequel too 🙂 I just cannot wait for it!
