About The Book:
Legends say that there exists a supreme Crystal of Creation, with part of the souls of Lord Shiva and Narayana suspended within it. This single most powerful weapon with the power to construct the universe, annihilate it, and recreate it again; remained hidden somewhere deep within the Himalayan ranges… Except now, it has gone missing.
Rama, the hero of the ages, must embark upon a perilous journey to find the Crystal of Creation before someone else, someone with an insatiable lust for power, discovers it and the reigns of the entire cosmos fall into the wrong hands.
And thus begins an epic adventure which will take Rama, beyond the kingdom of Ayodhya into lands where he will have to battle the most fiercest of demons that have colonized Earth and in the course, change the destiny of human lives forever. This tale will also seek to answer a question that has never been asked: Who was Rama really? What was his real purpose? Is he the real immortal?
As powers greater than the universe itself come together only to erupt into chaos and intrigue, discover a tale set in a time before Time, where the immortal Rama will come to life and reveal his mysterious world through his eyes as he begins his true purpose- the quest for the Crystal of Creation.
