So good you never want it to end!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Other reviewers have given great analyses of this book, so I'll skip that. Just want to say this: if you have ANY interest in India, or if you like history or historical fiction at all, you will NOT be able to put down this book. I actually read it at stoplights! That's how good it is! All I can say is thank god there's a sequel that I can start reading now!
A Treasure of India
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This epic tale of India draws the reader in by weaving ancient India events into an ongoing modern day treasure hunt. Each chapter brought a new understanding of the history that makes up thecomplex and exciting world of present day India. The historical chapters read as separate stories while the present day chapters are an ongoing novel within a novel. I found this book difficult to put down and enjoyable to read. The chapter with the battle on elephants featuring Emperor Ashoka made me feel like I was right in the middle. I could smell and feel the battle scenes. I reccomend it for anyone who is searching for a greater understanding of India or just a good read.

An utterly absorbing historical
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Gary Worthington's India Treasures: An Epic Novel Of Rajasthan And Northern India Through The Ages is an engaging and entertaining sequence of eight dynamic novellas about Rajasthan and Northern India across the length of human history, all connected by a modern-day treasure hunt. Incorporating crucial events of Indian history seamlessly into the story, India Treasures brings the reader before the wisdom of the Buddha, the canvas of a medieval artist, the throne of the Sultan of Delhi, and many more wondrous places. An utterly absorbing historical. Also highly recommended is the sequel, India Fortunes.
