The first three books in the popular Ram Chandra series-- 'Ram', 'Sita', 'Raavan'-- told the respective protagonit's story from their point of view, from their birth till the time Sita was abducted by Raavan. In 'War of Lanka', Amish interweaves the narratives of the previous books in this series into one and takes the story ahead. "Will Ram defeat the ruthless and fiendish Raavan, constrained as he is by the laws of Dharma? Will Lanka burn to a cinder or fight back like a cornered tiger? Will the terrible costs of war be worth the victory? Most importantly, will the Vishnu rise? And will the real enemies of the land fear the Vishnu? For fear is the mother of love," reads the book's blurb.

Written in Amish's easy-to-read style, 'War of Lanka' gives a new perspective to the epic Ramayana. The development of various important characters and their viewpoints is what makes this an interesting read. 'War of Lanka' is an action-packed retelling of the Ramayana, which fans of Amish and the mytho-fiction genre should definitely add to their reading list this year.
