In PRINCE OF AYODHYA, Ashok K. Banker told of the terrifying prophecy that doomed a city and the heroes that fought to preserve their homes. Drawing on the epic Indian saga of the Ramayana for inspiration, he has brought one of history's greatest works to a global audience.

Now SIEGE OF MITHILA continues the story of the heroes of the Ramayana. The prophecy of annihilation has been made and events are moving to their inexorable conclusion. The fate of the world hangs in the balance and the slightest mistake will lead to the certain destruction of all …

The original Ramayana was written in Sanskrit by a reformed thief-turned-sage named Valmiki, possibly as long ago as 2,000 B.C.
