    This book transported me. The characters were alive, the battles thrilling, and the cultural insight profound. Highly recommend!

  4. Ruchija Srivastava

    Found the pacing uneven. Some sections were captivating, others dragged. The family dynamics were interesting, but not always believable.

  5. Seerat Dang

    Debroy’s work makes this complex story accessible. The descriptions of ancient India were fantastic. I eagerly anticipate reading Volume .

  6. Medha S Tigga

    It’s good, but something was missing. I wanted it to be better and deeper, but It felt short. Overall, It was still okay.

  7. Aditi Bansal

    This volume is good and amazing. It is one of the best books i ever read in my life.

  8. Sanskar Maheshwari

    The Valmiki Ramayana is a classic for a reason! This translation is great, but I think the language could have been a little more descriptive. Still, a solid read.

  9. Nishant Kumar

    Amazing translation! It brought the epic to life. I learned so much about the culture and the historical aspects of the Ramayana.

  10. Yash Verma

    A decent introduction to the Ramayana. Some poetic elements are missing in translation. A good starting point, but not definitive.

  11. Jinendra

    Enjoyed the story, but found it hard to connect with some characters. Felt there were certain emotional depths unexplored. Still a worthwhile cultural read.

  12. Parth Prakash Singh

    While the narrative is compelling, I felt the translation was too modern at times. I prefer a more classical tone for epics.

  13. Iqraa

    A good start to the Ramayana. Debroy’s translation is easy to follow. Some parts felt a bit slow, but overall enjoyable. Would recommend to someone new to it.
