Title: Mahabharata: Sons of Gods
http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h266/arunadasi/mahabharatabook.jpg

Author: Aruna Raman (Sharon Maas)
Publication date: April 2009
Format: Print, ebook
Publisher: Lulu
Price: $13.74

There are many versions of the Mahabharata, the most beloved book of Hindus, out there. Some are little more than summaries or outlines of the world's longest epic. Others are well dramatized, but badly written. Others are well written, but the central story lacks cohesion and plot. This new version brings out the essence of this great story and restructures it into the familiar form of the modern novel, while retaining the flambouyant charm of the original.
