A decent Read
A good read channelling twin parallel stories of Chanakya. If you have fallen for the hype you might be disappointed. It's Defn better than Rozabal line.

A good read!!!!
Mixing ancient Indian politics with the modern one makes an interesting read!! The parallel stories give a great insight into politics!!!!

Interesting reading
Good reading.I enjoyed the book. Somewhat on the lines of a Bollywood movie though. I will recommend reading this book to anyone who likes fiction from Indian authors.

Greatt read
Very well written in a unique way of going forth past and the present wherein you wonder what is fiction and what is history

Interesting but could have done more to nurture suspension of disbelief
Very good premise. I feel the plot could have done better woven by being less dramatic and more credible. Perhaps allowed more fortuitous events and less master plan of every event in life. Could have done better to inspire that suspension of disbelief.

Excellently written book
The book is well written, the story is revietting and difficult to put down. I read it in a couple of sittings. The story alternates between the two timelines very nicely and ends aptly.

Interesting analogy
The author demonstrates a talent to keep the reader's interest. However, there is a lack of finesse, particularly in the modern part of the story. A good book, though, all in all.

Arthashastra
Wonderful book. The philosophy of Chanakya relived as an interplay between the past and present. Read it in 3 sittings. But one does need to be familiar with Indian history and the current, crooked political system to truly enjoy the material.

Nice book
Nice story writing by the author..besides chanakya's Arthashastra he should have written little bit of Emperor Chandragupta.. Otherwise nice book
