Shadows of the Sun Dynasty

An Series Based on the Ramayana (Sita's Fire Trilogy, Book 1)

By: Vrinda Sheth

Narrated by: Vrinda Sheth

Welcome to the royal city of Ayodhya, a realm ruled by the Sun dynasty, where peace reigns among the citizens while discord simmers behind the palace walls. A prophecy predicts that a son of the Sun dynasty will slay the immortal Ravana and defeat his demon army - but how will a mere human succeed where all the gods have failed?

Meanwhile, Ayodhya’s emperor is torn between his own needs and the needs of the empire. His rebellious third wife, raised as a warrior, is haunted by her past. A defiant servant, stigmatized by her deformity, is willing to destroy the empire to achieve her own aims. A prince, unaware of his own divine origin, falls in love with a princess so extraordinary even the all-seeing sages cannot fathom her destiny. Shape-shifting blood-drinkers from the celestial realm fill the forests around the city, and the time of prophecy is drawing near - but will the blessings of the gods be enough to fend off the darkness growing in the heart of Ayodhya?

A truly original reimagining of the classic Indian epic, the Ramayana, as told primarily through the eyes of the women behind the throne, Shadows of the Sun Dynasty reveals an entirely new perspective on an ancient story. This deluxe novel adaptation of the Ramayana features intimate portrayals of Rama, Sita, Dasharatha, Kausalya, Manthara, and many more. Set in a world of kings and queens, celestial battles, invisible foes, and family rivalries, this epic tale forges legends in the fires of betrayal and prophecy.

The most epic heartfelt retelling of the Ramayana

Wow, Vrinda's writing is brilliant, immediately you will be hooked. She brings each character to life, illuminating both their light and sides of darkness. Perfectly woven together from start to finish, she has left us hanging for book two. I recommend this book as the best read of your life, Ayodiya will unfold before you eyes. The love story of Sita and Rama is like no other. I look forward to reading the rest of the trilogy.
