Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Review: 2019.563 (A Word for Authors)
Pro: The author has obviously put time and effort into reading the Mahabharata.
Con: The result is painfully dull to read. There are way too many characters, none is relatable, and there’s no character development. There’s no actual plot, and it goes on and on and on.
