About this listen
In 334 BC Alexander the Great begins his conquest of the Persian Empire. But his plans for everlasting glory do not end there, and the young king marches towards the Ends of the Earth - the lands of the Indus - on a secret quest. It will lead him to an ancient secret concealed in the myths of the Mahabharata - a secret that is powerful enough to transform him into a god.
Present day. In Greece the ancient tomb of a queen is discovered, a tomb that has been an enigma for over 2,000 years.
In New Delhi, the Intelligence Bureau discovers unexplained corpses in a hidden lab. Vijay Singh and his friends, now members of an elite task force, are sucked into a struggle with a powerful and ruthless enemy. In a deadly race against time, they will need to solve a riddle from antiquity that will lead them to encounter shocking secrets from the past - secrets that will reveal mystifying links between ancient history, the Mahabharata and the ancient enemy with diabolical plans for a future that will hold the world to ransom.
The Quest has just begun...
After The Mahabharata Secret, Christopher C Doyle yet again explores the science behind the enduring mythology of the Mahabharata and brings it alive in a contemporary setting. The result is a gripping story that will keep you hooked right until the last minute.

You can live without reading this
Classic case of don’t judge a book by it’s cover. I started this since I was interested in historical accounts of Alexander. And it turned out to be fictional one - not sure that secret is actually a secret.

Abrupt ending to otherwise a great plot.
I liked everything about the book, the story is great. Narration is very good. Suspense is gripping, pace is just right. weaving of multiple stories and timelines is great.
But highly disappointed by the abrupt ending. Intention behind such ending is to force reader to buy the sequel. After having read the book for so long, when we expect the climax to unfold, the story ends. I feel I wasted time reading it, even if everything else about it was excellent.

Lethargic, Patchy and Boring
Story was elongated, Patchy with extremely bad narrative as compared to the other stories. Further parts needs to be simple in narrative and enthrilling

Chilling
Spine chilling fantasy fiction. Wish there was more completion to it. Some aspects of the story are totally unbelievable making it stand out as a work of fiction although epics are referenced and reader is made to believe things could be true. There seems to be a hurried end to the story.

Not very engaging
Bad narration with an awful accent.
All the Indian words were pronounced weirdly. Voice sounds monotonous.

Atrocity of a narration!
I cringed every time the narrator read the word Mahabharata or tried to read in a "Indian" accent.
The story itself is OK. A bit too much of unrealistic series of coincidences but not too bad to pass time.

Cock and bull
Though the storyline is gripping, the content is very poorly researched. Completely wrong references to Hundu mythology and mixing it with historical events! No Indian should have agreed to perform this!!
