Ram Sivasankaran's first installment of Peshwa held tremendous
promise. The second installment
was awaited for Mastani was to arrive
in it. I must say that Peshwa II doesn't disappoint for sure.
Ram does an excellent job of weaving parallels which go well with the
main track. The writing is clean and tidy. The length could have been
curtailed a bit. Yet no complaints. Writing a book of this grandeur
is no child's play. Mastani comes across as a woman with a spine and
not a courtesan.
The book gives you the satisfaction of reading both a historical
thriller and romance. The book is highly recommended.
