Sita Warrior of Mithila Synopsis:
India, 3400 BCE.
India is beset with divisions, resentment and poverty. Firstly, the people hate their rulers. Additionally, they despise their corrupt and selfish elite. Chaos is just one spark away. Outsiders exploit these divisions. Moreover, Raavan, the demon king of Lanka, grows increasingly powerful, sinking his fangs deeper into the hapless Sapt Sindhu.
Two powerful tribes, the protectors of the divine land of India, decide that enough is enough. A saviour is needed. They begin their search.
An abandoned baby is found in a field. Protected by a vulture from a pack of murderous wolves. She is adopted by the ruler of Mithila, a powerless kingdom, ignored by all. Nobody believes this child will amount to much. But they are wrong.
For she is no ordinary girl. She is Sita.
Continue the epic journey with Amish’s latest: A thrilling adventure that chronicles the rise of an orphan, who became the prime minister. And then, a Goddess.
This is the second book in the Ram Chandra Series. A sequel that takes you back. Back before the beginning.

This book was so frustrating and annoying to read. The first 100 or so pages is interesting. However, as soon as the Swayamwar scene starts and Ram enters the picture, the story is exactly the same as the previous book. Since both stories are told from the third person narrative, the author has literally copy pasted paragraphs between the two books. I actually picked up both the books, and read it side by side, and it is exact copy pasting! Overall, even the reader’s time is valuable when they invest it into reading a book. Therefore, it is somewhat of an insult when the author, especially someone of Amish’s stature who has so many fans, does not even respect his readers to write something original, and results on copy pasting the same material from the previous book.
