About the Book :
A Forgotten Hero. An Unforgettable Battle. India, 1025 AD.
Repeated attacks by Mahmud of Ghazni and his barbaric Turkic hordes have weakened India’s northern regions. The invaders lay waste to vast swathes of the subcontinent—plundering, killing, raping, pillaging. Many of the old Indian kingdoms, tired and divided, fall to them. Those who do fight, battle with old codes of chivalry, and are unable to stop the savage Turkic army which repeatedly breaks all rules to win. Then the Turks raid and destroy one of the holiest temples in the land: the magnificent Lord Shiva temple at Somnath.
At this most desperate of times, a warrior rises to defend the nation.
King Suheldev.
The ruler of a small kingdom, he sees what must be done for his motherland, and is willing to sacrifice his all for it. A fierce rebel. A charismatic leader. An inclusive patriot.
Read this blockbuster epic adventure of courage and heroism, a fictional tale based on true events, that recounts the story of that lionhearted warrior and the magnificent Battle of Bahraich.

Aditya – :
The way Amish writes his books with twists and turns is one of the best in the world. This book is a real-life based story which happened in India long ago when the Turks tried to invade and conquer us. But the invasion was stopped by Suheldev The King Of Shravasti and his allies. The strategies, twists and turns are the ones to keep an eye out for while reading this book. The narration of the story in the book is easy to understand and exciting. So to conclude I say that this is an interesting and also informative book about the Indian history and how the Turks got defeated. Great work by Amish and I recommend every Indian to read this book.
