"The story of the man whom legend turned into a god. 1900 BCE, in what modern history mistakenly calls the Indus Valley civilisation. To the inhabitants of the land, it is Meluha - a near-perfect empire created centuries earlier by Lord Ram, one of the greatest monarchs who ever lived. Its Suryavanshi rulers face severe perils. Its primary river, the revered Saraswati, is slowly drying into extinction. ... The only hope for the Suryavanshis is an ancient legend: "When Evil reaches epic proportions, when all seems lost, when it appears that your enemies have triumphed, a hero will emerge.": Is the rough-hewn Tibetan immigrant Shiva really that hero? And does he want to be a hero at all?"--Page 4 of cover
