Book Reviews of Armies of Hanuman (Ramayana series)
Book Review: Brilliant follow-through to a great series
Summary: 5 Stars
I had the pleasure of reading a very early copy of this book...okay, okay, so it was a proof copy in fact, which I got from a 'friend' at the publisher's office. After reading the first three books, I was sure that Banker could not get any better. But he blew me away. Not only does this book fulfil all the expectations raised by the previous three, it goes beyond. The action gets spectacular, starting with the battle of Janasthana at the beginning, from the first page itself, and is almost non-stop. He creates the world of the vanars beautifully, showing us what a completely different civilization of that time might really have been like. And the 'new' Lanka is also a stroke a genius. Ravana's character, as originally hinted at, finally begins to show a side hitherto unseen by us, and grows into a more convincing 'grey' character with many more shades and subtleties. It's clear that Banker will clear up many questions in the remaining books, and as any book in a series must do, Armies raises as many new possibilities as it resolves old ones, but this is a gripping, nail-biting addition to the series. And for those of us who like our fantasy intelligent and with emotional and yes, even moral, depth, this is a truly fantastic read.I can't recommend it enough.
