5/24/2023 0 Comments The immortals of meluha trilogyLanguage, character development and plot, all founding pillars to a successful novel were not his concern. After all, you are trying to rewrite an already well-told story.Īmish apparently did not worry about these things. You would think any writer would be cautious in his presentation and tone. Writing a fantasy novel is no mean feat, especially when you are taking on deeply revered Indian mythological and divine characters. The focus of the trilogy is the journey of Shiva (yup, that guy!) a Tibetan tribal leader to becoming the Neelkanth, the savior of the people of India. His story implies that all Indian Gods must have been mortals with exceptional achievements, which led to their divine status and somewhere in there, lies a story waiting to be told. The Premise Rocks But Everything Else Falters In MeluhaĪmish’s central premise of the series is promising. So there is an audience for this content, but it’s not me. So this is a bit of rant and I usually stay away from really negative reviews, but I just couldn’t get over how appalling I found these books.Īnd I admit I haven’t read only two-thirds of the Meluha Trilogy, but that’s enough to conclude that these are not for me.īefore I make a case for why these were not worth my time, the series has been constantly on the best-seller list and is also rumored to be picked up for movie rights.
