Ramaya vol.2 : Siege of Mithila - Ashok K. Banker

The invasion has begun, and the bestial demon hordes roar towards Ayodhya. If Ayodhya falls, then all mortals fall. Rama must go to Mithila--a city lying directly in the path of destruction. There, a small band of heroes plan a valiant stand against the advancing armies of darkness. But Lanka`s forces are nearly boundless and have swept all before them. For at the head of the demon tide rides Rama`s nemesis, a terrible slayer of souls--the demonlord Ravana.The original Ramayana--a classic tale of war between absolute Good and Evil-- was written three thousand years ago by Valmiki, a reformed thief-turned-sage. Now, with breathtaking imagination, Indian novelist Ashok K. Banker has recreated this epic tale for modern readers everywhere.
