Recently i was travelling from chennai to london and i had around 2 hours wait before the boarding gate. I walked around found a book shop and entered inside.
I skimmed through lots of books and finally settled for parthiban kanavu written by amarar kalki.
The story is excellent set in the scenes of Chola and Pallava rule.
Mainly that the Chola kingdom is shrunk and Pallavas are dominating.
The Chola king paarthiban has a dream to establish the Chola kingdom back to its original glory. But he dies in a war with pallavas. He conveys his dream to his son vikrama cholan and his wife.
vikrama happens to meet narasimha pallavans daughter kundhavi and falls in love with her.
Meanwhile Narasimha had met Paarthiban during his death time and gets to know about his dream.
Secretly he tries to help vikrama chola to establish chola kindom.
i will stop here and let you read this excellent novel as i cannot present in the same style as Kalki.
The novel is written in an excellent way. it has
> politics
> love
> emotions
> tamil traditions
> informaiton about how tamil nadu was
> saiva
> truth
and many more..
I strongly advice do not miss it..
