   Fast Paced!!!!

   Just awesome!!! This is the word I will say about this book. This is all about a tribal man....who become the 'Maha Dev' or the god of the gods. Plotted in 3400 B.C. A nice interpretation of ancient Hindu mythology and civilization by Amish Tripathi. After reading this book, you will see the Hindu mythological characters in a new light.
   
   A must read!!!

   How I Discovered Lord Shiva

   I remember picking up ‘The Immortals of Meluha’ only after the second book in the Shiva Trilogy was published. And I was hooked on from page one!!! Amish Tripathi has wonderfully woven a tale with its roots in mythology and faith and its heart in a dynamic God, Lord Shiva. With a host of beautifully etched out characters like Sati, Nandi, Bhadra, Brihaspati, Parvateshvar, Ayurvati (to name a few), The Immortals of Meluha was an enthralling book and it helped me discover Lord Shiva!

   Great book

   Great one from Amish Tripathi. can be called modern day mythology - a new genre in itself. it seems the author might have got inspiration from Da Vinci Code.

   Interesting Story

   The author has amalgamated facts and fiction really well to create a spell binding and interesting story. The language is easy and you can finish the book in one setting, but the story is quite gripping. It's good to read about mythology from a fiction point of view

   Mks

   better!
   
   A very interesting concept: Shiva as a mere mortal helping to destroy 'evil'. The more interesting struggle at heart is knowing what "

   Its one super awesome book !

   I was never a real fan of Indian Mythology ....until I read Immortals of Meluha ...my excitement seems to increase with every chapter. I really wished for a second that everything in the book really happened. My verdict is that this is one book you should not miss.

   Mythology redefined

   This book is certainly a credit to indian writing in english as well as attempt to relook at mythology. The story set in ancient india, goes about meshing using our various folktales and providing a structure so that our mythology may be very real after all. It certainly builds and anticipation for parts to come and mysteries to be revelaed

   interesting imagination, good story

   I loved the way amish has imagined a mortal shiv. A human who would rise to the level of god by its deed. Having read the book, i feel though the narration could have been better, the overall story is compelling. I will wait to see some producer to pick it up for a grand movie.

    Meluha the best of the three along with the Cover page!

    Read it in less than a month it was released in 2010 i suppose( i am not that good with the dates) The main thing that attracted me towards this book is the cover page alone and after reading the book i could directly feel that the author is only trying to bridge the differnece between Mythology & History but in this part he was ok Enough and was waiting for iThe Secret of nagas till 2011 oct(that was when i gt a time to read it) that was only good enough to know or to complete the story which we have already started and felt like it was getting a bit dropped and the Oath of Vayuputras was good to complete so, i can say i have heard all that author wanted to say with this Triology..
    Of all these three this was all alone gave me a thought to inner thinking on Philosophy saying that suryavanshi's & chandravanshi's are different bt nt evil!!!!!! thats the lone point i liked in all three books
