1. Cover: The cover is very beautifully designed with an eye catching figure of a bulky man in bright colours. One that makes a reader want to grab the book from a shelf instantaneously.

2. Presentation: We rarely get to hear any tales about characters who are not the central ones in either of our epics Ramayana or Mahabharata. Here the author has chosen a lesser known hero and made him larger than life in her words. The presentation is euphoric and nothing less than that.

3. Narration: The narration of the book is what one can easily called poetry in prose. It is beautiful and one that immediately warms up your heart with the immense detailing the author has done in various scenes, especially the war scene. It makes you visualise the whole war front very beautifully.

4. Characters: The main character is ofcourse Pradyumna who is shown as someone who is very powerful and is multi-dimensional at the same time because of which he looks connectable and believable.

5. Plot: The plot is very engrossing. With ample twists and turns it speaks volumes about the author’s research behind this book.

6. Storyline: The storyline does perfect justice to the pivotal character and also makes you want to wait quickly for its sequel. You need to know what is happening next now, it is that engrossing!

7. Story Flow: The story flow with the requisite twists and turns is one edge of the seat read, coming from an author whose debut work was a murder mystery she surely knows how to keep the readers hooked.

8. Language: The language is simple.

9. Pros: Apart from the unique storyline the strongest point in the book is its narrative. The author’s research backed with such a sound plot makes it a page-turner.

10. Cons: There are no cons in the book!
