Watch the book trailer on youtube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUKU79U_P1w “To meditate lifelong At the feet of Our Lord” Kalki’s choice of Thirunavukkarasar’s words to end his novel is indicative of the shift from romance to reflection, from mundane to spiritual. The Great War of Vatapi, fought after nine long years of preparation, has ended in victory for Mamallar. Pulikesi meets his end in the battle. Paranjyothi, the war strategist, is not enchanted by the victory. What path does he choose to find solace? The Machiavellian Naganandi ends up a tragic hero. What makes the reader pity rather than condemn him? Honour of the state drives Mamallar to make difficult choices in his personal life. His friendship and allegiance also change on account of that. What has life in store for him? After what seems like an endless wait, Sivakami’s oath is fulfilled and her honour is upheld. But why does happiness continue to evade her? Read the scintillating fourth and final volume of ‘Sivakamiyin Sabadham’ for the answers. You will go through a gamut of experiences and realize that the end is in fact a new beginning.
