Pages: 274 pagesYugantar is a historical fiction that gives a deep insight into ancient India.
Set in the fourth century BCE, the book follows a cast of interesting characters as they show how life was in those times. There is a blacksmith from Ujjayini, a Siddha doctor from Madurai, a mariner from Muziris, a trader from Pataliputra and a widow nun from Kaushambi. It was a time of great change as old systems were changing and foreign aggressors were invading and all the characters were drawn to and affected by the events.
