1) The Winds of Hastinapur (Hastinapur, #1)

Ganga, the lady of the river, falls in love with Shantanu, the crown prince of Hastinapur. But theirs is not a happy union. Ganga is tasked with bringing forth eight sons to honour the curse of Sage Vasishtha, and then she must raise her eighth son on Meru.

2) The Rise of Hastinapur (Hastinapur, #2)

Amba, Kunti and Gandhari arrive to tell their tales in this powerful sequel to Winds of Hastinapur. Here we see the history of Hastinapur take shape in three separate threads.

Amba, the princess of Kosala, thinks her future is secure when Bhishma allows her to go to her beloved. But fate conspires to drive her deep into the forest, where she must discover herself.

Pritha, the daughter of Kuntibhoja, finds herself embroiled in an adventure that takes her to Mathura. Here the secrets of the great city are revealed to her.

Gandhari, the princess of Gandhara, gives everything in her power to withstand the psychological onslaught of Bhishma. But it may not be enough.

3) The Queens of Hastinapur (Hastinapur, #3)

In this third installment, Gandhari and Kunti come face to face in the court of Hastinapur. Despite being the wife of the older prince, Gandhari finds that she must be on her guard if her sons are to become future rulers of the Kuru house.

Kunti finds her own world crumble as her husband decrees that they must go to the forest. There she ends up with five sons - not all of them her own, and none of them her husband's. Will these princes ever be accepted as the sons of Pandu?

Product Description

Have you ever wondered about the silences of the Mahabharata?

Not the same old tired retellings of a single incident from a different point of view, but the actual silences. What must Bhishma's childhood have been like in Heaven, in the arms of his mother Ganga? What was Satyavati's inner life like, before Shantanu came to her and offered her his hand?

So many unsung characters in Vyasa's great epic: Amba, Kunti, Gandhari... so many untold tales; so many untouched meadows.

In the Hastinapur books, you will find yourself lost in the stories that Vyasa left unexplored. Join Ganga as she wrestles with her ambition of being a great river Goddess while being mother to young Bhishma; Satyavati as she wonders why she has been placed in Fate's path; Kunti as she wakes one morning on a sun-kissed bed that changes her life; Gandhari as she yearns to steer her kingdom to glory...

And Amba. Amba the scorned princess of Kosala who, after being wronged by Bhishma, has to find herself deep in the woods of Naimisha.

All these women - every single one of them - are Destiny's daughters. Their choices, their struggles, and their deepest wishes shape the path of history. And it leads all the way to Kurukshetra, where the battle to end all battles will be fought. Far, far into the future.

And lurking in the background, pulling strings that are invisible to mere mortals, are the people of Meru. Guarding the Crystal Lake. Driven by desires of their own.

Come - I assure you: you've never seen the Mahabharata like this.
