The Hidden Hindu Trilogy

Just read one right now and already in love with it. Was looking for hard cover but this is working too

Great book

In "Unveiling Eternity," Akshat Gupta masterfully combines mythology and modern science fiction to create a spellbinding narrative. This title encapsulates the essence of the book, highlighting Gupta's ability to reveal the hidden depths of Hindu mythology through an enthralling and contemporary lens.

Great book

I am into the second volume now. Can’t deny there is a sincere attempt to marry mythology/history with fertile imagination but it fails to hold my interest because of the quality of the writing. Very amateurish, unprofessional use of the language. The second volume seems to slightly better written than the first - so there is still hope. I am reading the English version of these books - it is possible the originals were in Hindi and they did a poor (and quick, due to time to market pressures) translation job. That has to be the reason, because I have watched many author interviews in the social media and Akshat always comes across as very articulate both in English and Hindi.

I purchased this trilogy on the recommendation of a friend. But after a couple of chapters, decided to dump all the three books in the trash. Never read a book more badly written and more difficult to follow.

Crazy trilogy.

Not a book reader at all but once I started I couldn’t stop myself from finishing it! Loved how beautifully Author has explained things with facts! Thank you. Waiting for next set…

Amazing story telling, kept engaged throughout. Must read.

The core concept blending mythology and modern action is really compelling and kept me reading. There are some genuinely exciting parts and interesting ideas explored. However, the writing felt a bit simplistic at times, and the pacing across the trilogy was inconsistent, with some books stronger than others. A worthwhile read for the story, but could have been polished more.
