Publisher's Summary
To prepare for the future, our ancestors created the Naga sadhus―a clan of warriors for the protection of Dharma, as proclaimed by Adi Guru Shankaracharya in the eighth century. This sect of Shiva devotees has stood firm, living selflessly and fighting fearlessly. For centuries, they have died the death of heroes, serving and saving Dharma and the temples.
In the year 1757, 111 Naga sadhus borrowed the majestic weapons of the idols of their gods. Fueled by their belief in Lord Shiva, they gathered an invincible courage to protect the temples of Gokul. They stood as an indestructible wall, led by Ajaa, a fearless Naga warrior, against the Afghan army of 4000 men, a cavalry of 200 horses and 100 camels, and 20 cannons. The brutal Afghan army was led by Sardar Khan, the most ruthless commander of Emperor Ahmed Shah Abdali, ill-famed for the demolition of temples and building a history of genocide in Bharat.
The fight continues. This is the Naga warrior’s commitment to courage and determination. This is the clash of Shiva devotees against the devils that lie under men’s skin. This is the Battle of Gokul.

Prithvi, a twenty-one-year-old, is searching for a mysterious middle-aged aghori (Shiva devotee), Om Shastri, who was traced more than 200 years ago before he was captured and transported to a high-tech facility on an isolated Indian island. When the aghori was drugged and hypnotized for interrogation by a team of specialists, he claimed to have witnessed all four yugas (the epochs in Hinduism) and even participated in both Ramayana and Mahabharata.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4
Aryavarta, the ancient realm of the noble. For generations the Firstborn dynasty of scholar-sages, descendants of Vasishta Varuni and protectors of the Divine Order on earth, has dominated here. For just as long, the Angirasa family of Firewrights, weapon-makers to the kings and master inventors, has defied them. In the aftermath of the centuries-long conflict between the two orders, the once-united empire of Aryavarta lies splintered, a shadow of its former glorious self.

I loved it
"Kali teaches us that sometimes, to find peace and purity, we must face and conquer our inner demons."
First of all, I am very grateful to Penguin India for bringing out such beautiful mythological books.
If you are one amongst those who are hearing about "The Naga Warriors" for the first time, I would like to give you a brief about the author.
Akshat Gupta is an Indian author renowned for his best-selling "The Hidden Hindu" trilogy, which blends mythology with science fiction and adventure.
And, he is back with another gem of the book -"The Naga Warriors: Battle of Gokul Vol. I"
"The Naga Warriors" is an untold story full of action that takes reader on a thrilling journey through a world of intrigue, mythology and adventure.
I was sold the moment I saw mentions of Lord Shiva or Lord Krishna in the book. This book covers a story of Nagas or Naga Sadhus as often referred in Indian culture.
As a reader, the book kept me hooked with twists and turns and a layer of suspense added throughout the story.
As an Indian, this book adds a unique flavor by using Akshat's knowledge and creative use of mythological references thus, enriching the narrative and providing depth to the story plot.
The characters are meticulously developed with each one having a backstory.
Akshat has crafted a world that not only entertains but also immerses readers in a rich tapestry of mythological & contemporary elements.
The well-rounded characters, captivating storyline, & vivid descriptions make "Naga Warrior's" a standout. Vedant's charcters as a selfish and coward rules provides a
poignant reflection on modern-day betrayals withing communities & nations. For anyone seeking a mythological thriller, this is your goto book.
Can't wait for the sequel.

a phenomenal journey !
loved the story,such a strong narrative almost hair raising.
Hindutva is not a religion it's a way of life.
we walk with the collective wisdom and blessings of our powerful ancestors that were gods.
it's true.
