Product Description
Synopsis
Rama has quelled the demon invasion. He has thwarted the demonlord Ravana. And he is wedded to the enchanting Sita. But the young prince's problems are far from over. For Rama has been challenged by the fabled axe-wielding brahmin Parshurama - a warrior of such power he has never been defeated. And should he survive the confrontation, a greater crisis awaits him. Accompanied by his beloved Sita and loyal brother Lakshman, the prince must travel deep into the heart of the dread forest of Dandaka-van. There he will be pitted against the vengeful survivors of Ravana's rakshasa hordes. And in the tiny outlaw settlement of Chitrakut, surrounded by blood-thirsty demons, he must prepare to face fourteen long hard years of exile. The original Ramayana was written in Sanskrit by a reformed thief-turned-sage named Valmiki, possibly as long ago as 2,000 B.C.

5.0 out of 5 stars a master at his peak, 27 Jun 2004
the third book of ramayana proves that Ashok K. Banker is a master of Indian epic tales. Demons of Chitrakut is the best book so far and that is saying something big! The action is well-paced with the emotional and dramatic scenes--the parts in Ayodhya are phenomenal and the journey of the exiles to the forest is the greatest fiction sequence I have ever read. This book is longer and more full of events than the first two, but it focusses on the characters and their relationships so strongly that you really feel you are one with them. My only wish now is that Mr Banker's publishers, please bring out the rest of the Ramayana fast!!!

And I can't wait for the Mahabharata.

Some readers who think Mr Banker is inspired by Lord of the Rings would do well to throw out their c
