BOOK REVIEW : The Oath of the Vayuputras by Amish

   


"Good and Evil are two sides of the same coin. The key question is not as to what is Evil but when does the coin flip and Good turns to Evil"------ these lines form the basis for the third and final book in the Shiva trilogy, the Oath of the Vayuputras by Amish.
This book is the final lap in the Neelkanth's quest for the true evil and how Shiva annd his entourge manage to defeat the evil. But is it so easy or does Shiva has to pay a price for it?
Amish weaves a tight paced story with graphic battle scenes and cinematic descriptions of Pariha,the abode of the Vayuputras and Ujjain, the beautiful city of the Vasudevs.
Amish introduces a few new characters in the final book, but instead of confusing the readers, Amish manages to bring all the characters together to make the story progress smoothly.He has put in the right dose of drama,emotion, romance and action making it an inteteresting read.
Though its a bit slow in comparison to the first two books but it is an overall good book making it a fiting finale to the Shiva trilogy.
