Review: Ramayan is one of the best Epic of Indian Mythology and as a reader I always love to read it. The look of the cover is Interesting and blurb and Title clearly indicates about the exile of Lord Rama. The Author Shubha Vilas had beautifully explained in detail about the exile of Lord Rama. I appreciate his research work. The best part of the book was Lord Rama’s teachings which he had mentioned in each chapter which if one apply in their life they will surely attain success. The arguments between Two Brother’s Lord Rama and Lord Bharata out of love for the throne were very interesting to read. Each chapter was explained in a very comprehensive manner. As a reader, I would appreciate if everyone read this book. I loved the beautiful relationship between Lord Ram and Sita. Their silent love was beautifully described. It was a complete mixture of many Ramayan’s which was the highlight of the book. One can read interesting tales from different Ramayan’s in one book. The characters are well defined and everyone knows them. The writing style was simple and easy to understand. A must read book for all thos people who love to read Indian Mythology. I am waiting for the Third book. Good luck Author. J
