I really love reading various retellings of ramayanam I find it interesting how the stories may have changed and I love the new twists and turns they add to the story.
This book was a fun read. I found the beginning a bit annoying because of the various time skips I still don't understand the point of doing that. The main thing I loved in this book is they gave us so much information about about the state of Ayodhya l knew the financial condition was bad and this goes deep into those topics. I also found Ram's job in the city to maintain peace and the efforts he made was interesting.
I loved the dynamic between Ram and Lakshman also the cute moments of Ram when he met Sita ❤️. Bharat is a character I never gave much attention but after reading this book I appreciate his character so much more.
I think we should not compare this book so much to the real source and enjoy it on its own. The author did great job of comparing the situations in real life to tackle situations in society today.
In the end it was a great read I cannot wait to start the next book in the series.
