  1. Himanshu

    Magnificent! A must-read for anyone interested in Greek mythology. The translator did an excellent job! Overall a really great novel.

  2. Shaswati Doley

    While a classic, it is also very difficult to read. Many words that are used are old and not easy to understand. Not for new readers.

  3. Kopal Mittal

    A classic, but the language felt a bit dense at times. Still, a worthwhile read for anyone interested in epic poetry. The characters are really great.

  4. Chetan Prakash

    Amazing book and great story. It is really a great read, and I am glad that I picked it up. It is one of the best books of all time.

  5. Anjali Yadav

    A mixed bag. Some parts were great, others were boring. I’m glad I read it, but I wouldn’t rush to read it again. It was an okay experience.

  6. Prisha Garg

    I wanted to love this more than I did. It was okay. A bit slow-moving for my taste but I can see why people like it. Not the best book ever.

    Absolutely captivating! The rich imagery and timeless themes make this a must-read. The characters are all great and fun to follow along with.

  12. Ansaf S

    While good, I feel it is overrated. Definitely not a bad story, it just did not live up to the hype for me. Was still an enjoyable book though.

  13. Aayush Tanwar

    A bit of a slog to get through, but ultimately rewarding. The themes are timeless and thought-provoking. There were times when I enjoyed it.

  14. Disha Aggarwal

    I loved the epic scope and the complex characters. This book truly brings the classic to life. It is a great way to learn about old stories.

  15. Amithabh Sai R

    Found it a bit long and meandering, but there are moments of brilliance. Not my favorite epic, but I can appreciate its historical significance.

  16. Riva

    Absolutely stunning! This book is a masterpiece. The translator did a fantastic job. Highly recommend for anyone who likes adventure.

  17. Ashish Koteshwar Mahadule

    Sholay is a book that everyone should read. Amazing translation of the original. This epic adventure is one that I enjoyed a lot.

  18. Poojitha Matangi

    I struggled to get into this at first, but once I did, I was hooked. The descriptions are vivid, but the plot can feel slow-moving at times.

  19. Yasaswani Akula

    I found it difficult to follow at times, but the overall story is compelling. It is a good book for those who are interested in classics.

  20. Anuj Shany

    I found some parts to be confusing, and had to reread many sections. I think this is a book that is only for people who have read many of these books.

  21. Subhaditya Chatterjee

    A good story, but I preferred other translations. The footnotes were helpful, though. It was an okay experience but could have been better
