The story of Udayan, direct descendant of the great Pandava warrior Arjuna, is all thatremains of the third great Indian epic, the Bruhatkatha. Though he is raised to be awarrior-King, whose sword must carry the blood of his enemies, as a supremely giftedveena maestro, his soul belongs to the Goddess of Music. As time passes, the greatVatsa Empire crumbles as its musician-King sits lost to the reality of intrigue, espionageand war which threatens to wipe out both his kingdom and the Pandava line forever.This is the epic tale of Udayan, his devoted Minister, Yaugandharayan, his fiercely loyalGeneral, Rumanwan, and the brilliant Court Jester, Vasantak. It is also the story ofPradyot, proud King of Avanti, and Udayan's abduction of his vivacious and beautifuldaughter, Vasavdatta. As the thrilling narrative sweeps across the plains and mountainsof Bharatvarsh, raising the dust of history. Events long past come to life as the forgottenPandava lives again.
