About this ebook

In the heart of ancient India, the Mauryan dynasty faces a crucible of fire. Emperor Bindusara, a warrior emperor haunted by the cost of war, struggles to maintain control of his vast empire building legacy. Pataliputra city, the glittering capital, becomes a breeding ground for political intrigue, where a ruthless advisor weaves a web of treachery, and whispers of rebellion echo from the restive province of Takshashila. This historical fiction journey into the Mauryan empire reveals a world on the brink

When tragedy strikes, young Ashoka ascends the throne, inheriting not only power but also the seeds of his father's troubled reign. But the brutal Kalinga war and a bloody battle for succession against his brother forces Ashoka to confront the true cost of war. As he grapples with his conscience, a profound spiritual awakening begins, leading him on a quest for peace unlike any seen before. Will Ashoka successfully transform the Mauryan empire, or will power and corruption, fueled by lingering enemies and royal court intrigue, tear his realm apart? Perfect for history enthusiasts and readers with an India interest, this tale of ancient India blends historical battles with profound Buddhist philosophy, resulting in moving philosophical fiction.
