The Book Blurb

The epics say, in the great War of Ramayana, a number of rakshasas escaped. They hid in the bowels of the Earth, in the water and in space and remained dormant for eons. In the 20th century of the Christian era, however, some of them reappeared in different forms to plague the Earth with Wars and illnesses. At the end of his war with Ravana, Rama had asked Hanuman to raise and train a contingent of warriors who would take birth multiple times on Earth, to contain the demons. Aishani and Adheesh are two such warriors, blessed with divine weapons and powers to fight the world’s evils at present times. 

Read this exciting story to know who finally wins. The good or the evil? The demons of jaitraya is the first book of the trilogy of the war between demons and humans.

Rating - 3 /5 ★★★


My Review


The Demons of the Jaitraya is a mythological fiction trilogy, the first in the series. This book follows the story of an Indian Ramayana tale that uniquely connects with the present century.

At the time of the epic war between Rama and Ravana, many demons escaped and hid to save themselves. To defend the earth from them, Hanuman stays and prepares others for the impending fight. Aishani is the only one who can kill demons and save humans. She was born with mystical abilities and a soulmate equally as powerful as her-Adheesh. They both need to discover themselves to know their ultimate destiny, birth history, and connection to each other.

The book's intriguing prologue draws you in right away. The book's cover, title, and blurb pique my interest. The plot is unique, strong, and different but linked to the various myths of Ramayana. The language is straightforward and clear to provide perfect sight. Some chapters go into great detail on the supporting characters so that you can understand and connect with them. The novel moves quickly and is well-written.

However, the writing style is quite different and unfamiliar to me, which is hard to ignore and confounds me. Too many extended lines, repeats of description, and repetitions of words slow the pace for me.

Overall, the plotline and settling of the world is a rich and perfect story of modern mythological Hindu fiction. The suspense presses me into this book and many of its life lessons.
