The Oath of Vayuputras is the last of the three part series by AMISH. If you have already read the first two, there is no point not reading the third one.
This book is not only the longest ,but also covers the largest time line of the series. The build up to the war is exonerating and you never feel like dropping the book. As this is the culminating book, you already know that the end is going to be a war and not a small one that too. Unlike the earlier books, where there was always an hidden element that was not exposed till the very last pages of the books and left you appalled, this one is more straightforward and at times dips in the excitement .
All the characters have their defined roles,relationships and responsibilities,but still everyone's character is tested at some point in the book. The challenge that each character overcomes , in order to choose between the battle of Karma and Truth , is a fascinating and every character's choice is well justified.
Why I personally liked this book more than the previous editions, is because was the philosophical touch. AMISH has done a superb job at explaining the learnings of Ramayan through his characters.There is belief system of everyone and AMISH does very well to let you decide that in the end, if its actually about the GOOD and the EVIL in the people or about the prospective that each side holds.
This book might not have the suspense of the previous books, but it surely builds up to a fabulous end that leaves you either in remorse or in fits of anger..I would say, if you have not already read it. You should do it soon.The end surely gives a new meaning to the phrase - 'Happily ever after ' .
