Synopsis"The story of Udayan, direct descendant of the great Pandava warrior Arjuna, is all that
remains of the third great Indian epic, the Bruhatkatha. Though he is raised to be a
warrior-King, whose sword must carry the blood of his enemies, as a supremely gifted
veena maestro, his soul belongs to the Goddess of Music. As time passes, the great
Vatsa Empire crumbles as its musician-King sits lost to the reality of intrigue, espionage
and war which threatens to wipe out both his kingdom and the Pandava line forever.
This is the epic tale of Udayan, his devoted Minister, Yaugandharayan, his fiercely loyal
General, Rumanwan, and the brilliant Court Jester, Vasantak. It is also the story of
Pradyot, proud King of Avanti, and Udayan’s abduction of his vivacious and beautiful
daughter, Vasavdatta. As the thrilling narrative sweeps across the plains and mountains
of Bharatvarsh, raising the dust of history. Events long past come to life as the forgotten
Pandava lives again."
