    A bit overwhelming at first, but stick with it! The wisdom and storytelling are truly remarkable.

  2. Anjali Agrawal

    Enjoyable, but the constant battles felt a little repetitive. Still, a worthwhile cultural experience.

    Smith’s rendition makes this epic accessible. The story of duty and war is enthralling, though a bit lengthy.

    It’s a good book but felt that many things were unexplained. Wish there were more insights into the characters.

    A timeless story, well-told. I found myself pondering the themes of duty and destiny long after finishing.

    This edition is great for beginners. Easy to understand, but maybe lacks some depth for seasoned readers.
