Book Review 54: Satyayoddha Kalki by Kevin Missal.

Satyayoddha Kalki: Eye of Brahma is the second book of the Kalki Series by Kevin Missal. The first book Dharmayoddha Kalki was quite interesting. The second part is no less than the first one. It's equally good. After I completed the first book, I was very eager to read the second book of the series.

After the events that took place in the first book, this book begins with the events that follow. The book begins with the third part - The Coup at Indragarh. (The first two parts - The Battle of Shambhala and The Rise of Kali has been covered in the previous book). To make it easier for the readers, the author has provided with a brief synopsis of the first book at the beginning. The book begins with Kalki's escape from the execution and his journey to meet Bhargav Ram at Mahendragiri. Padma and Kripa accompany him on his journey. On his way, he faces various adversities. There are many subplots intertwined with the main plot. As the story progresses, it becomes more interesting and intriguing.

Although the book is a bit lengthy, it won't make the readers feel bored. Written in simple and easy language, Satyayoddha Kalki is a book which will keep you hooked till the very end. The characters have been developed really well. While reading the book, I could feel all the emotions that the characters were going through. The author has done a commendable job in portraying each of the characters. The ending of this book will leave you on a cliffhanger, wanting to know what happens next. And now I am eagerly waiting to read the final part of this series.

I totally recommend this book, especially to mythological fiction lovers. You'll surely love it!
