Review: An awesome book! - You must read to know the facts about our Culture!!!!! My Humble salutations to you, Sudha Murthy Ma'am!!!!! Review: A Must Read ! - Title : The Serpent’s Revenge Author : Sudha Murthy Genre : Mythology Pages : 181 Publisher : Penguin Rating : 5 / 5 My Review : We are very much aware of the epic tale : Mahabharata but are oblivious to numerous episodes which occurred before and after this magnanimous war. Hence, this book gives us an elaborate understanding of various incidents that led to the war (Mahabharata) and how the deeds of various Warriors and Kings had an adverse effect on the lives of their successors. I won’t be listing out my favourite stories as each and every tale in this book will either present a lesson for life or surprise you with it’s plot and climax. You really need to be wise enough to understand the crux, certain tales has to offer, for the growth of your spiritual being. Sudha Murthy never fails to amaze it’s readers with her magnificent stories and seamlessly perfect writing skills. The language is simple yet elegant and convincing at the same time. Owing to this reason, she is one of my favourite authors of all time. Guys, just read this book and I’m sure you will thank me later. ## Features - Penguin/Puffin - Great one for reading - Compact for travelling ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #6,652 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #103 in Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths for Children (Books) #232 in Fantasy for Children #742 in Children's Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,401 Reviews | ## Images ![The Serpent's Revenge: Unusual Tales From The Mahabharata - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91C4KE0waDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An awesome book! *by A***H on 19 April 2026* You must read to know the facts about our Culture!!!!!

This book is not for the people who know mahabharat very well but, for children and who know only the gist of the story. Well written in simple words and can be understood very easily. It's certainly good book for school age children. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Serpent's Revenge: Unusual Tales from the Mahabharata - The Upside-Down King: Unusual Tales About Rama and Krishna (Unusual Tales from Indian Mythology) - The Magic of the Lost Temple --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/76198830-the-serpents-revenge-unusual-tales-from-the-mahabharata](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/76198830-the-serpents-revenge-unusual-tales-from-the-mahabharata) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-15*
