More DescriptionRetold for readers from the Occident as well as those educated in English medium, the stories from one of the world's oldest and longest epic Mahabharat abound in a wealth of multi-faceted characters and variegated worldviews.When King Pandu meets his end from the terrible Curse of the Deer in the Snow Mountains his queen and sons decide to return to their capital. Little do the Pandav Princes know that before they can claim their legacy they have to face evil lurking in dark corridors of the palace, escape infernos and live in wilderness, combat cannibals, marry giantesses and win princesses, descend to the Netherworld and ascend to the Elysium to procure celestial weapons. After being denied justice they face an apocalyptic, fratricidal war which threatens to devastate the realm on the cusp of ages, and questions their very belief in ethics. But the Pandavs are no ordinary humans. Born with the blessings of Celestial lords, they have the charismatic Krishna as their friend, philosopher, and guide who can steer them through the calamities that befall them. Or, can he?
