A review by nookofley
Ponniyin Selvan - The Cyclone by Kalki

4.0

The second part is equally filled with action and history. We get introduced to new characters in this part. We see Poonkuzhali and Ponniyin Selvan himself. I loved the description of Sri Lanka under the Chozla Imperial. I loved how peaceful it was and how happy the people were celebrating even during wartime. I was, however, intrigued when the leadership of Karikalan and Arulmozli was compared by Vandiyadevan himself. We know that eventually Arulmozhli will be ruling the Chozla empire, but it is fun to just wonder how it would have been under Karikalan's rule.

The female characters in this book are extremely strong and smart. I love that they, too, play a huge part when it comes to the decisions or plots made in this book.

I can't wait to read the next part!
