title

The original Ramayana was written in Sanskrit by a reformed thief-turned-sage named Valmiki, possibly as long ago as 2,000 B.C. Now, with breathtaking imagination and brilliant storytelling, Indian writer Ashok Banker has recreated this magnificent tale for modern readers everywhere.

In the ancient city of Ayodhya, a young prince has a terrifying apocalyptic vision. Shortly after, an ancient seer arrives at the city gates with an equally terrifying prophecy. Two men brought together by extraordinary events. Two men who will journey together to the ends of the world…

The Ramayana has begun.
