Review of Ashvamedha

Title : Ashvamedha

Author : Aparna Sinha






As the blurb of the book goes:"You have to dethrone a powerful man to become the most powerful. I was itching to defeat the single most powerful person, but there wasn't any. I was left with only one choice — to create one."

Little does Ashwin Jamwal know that the last twenty-five years of his life have been controlled by a master manipulator, who wanted to make him the most powerful man on earth, though for a reason! Ashwin steps up to take oath as the youngest Prime Minister of India and is unknowingly thrown into a vortex of power and authority as the entire world is threatened by a faceless enemy — Hades.

The world starts to look up to Ashwin as the savior, but he was just a pawn, reared only to be sacrificed in the end.

A story of greed, lies, deceptions, manipulations and corruption, Ashvamedha is a thriller revolving around the infamous game of power in a maddening bid to seek absolute control.




My View:The poem in the beginning itself drags reader's attention towards the story.It defines the art  of the authoress how she can make web for the readers so that the readers would give all of their attention to her words.In the first few pages, what I get to see in her words is politics and politics.I,being a person who doesn't like to involve in talks of politics, for sometime doesn't like the content of the book.But as the authoress gives curves to the story, I got completely engaged to it.



The series of events offered to the readers are full of twists and turns.It would make the reader's mind go round and round to walk along with the author's mind.Even the last word of the novel could give goosebumps to the reader and could make him think about the consequences that could happen later with the characters involved.



The way the story ends hints that its next series would definitely arrive in the market.I'll eagerly wait for the the next book in the series with much more expectations from the author.



Rating :4.5/5
