I received an e copy of this book in exchange of my honest opinion.

This is an own voice review.

As an Indian Hindu , I grew up with these epics and Bharat krishnan has an amazing voice to tell these stories. And every story has an author's note of why he chose to write this and the importance of each story is marvelous.

Love , Pride , Virtue and Fate is an interesting anthology of Hindu epics. Or handy guide to Hindu religion if you may. This book explores the essence of Indian culture through the legends. This book has a story of why parents always come first and the importance of Duty and the importance keeping a promise , which is basically the trifold of being a proper Indian irrespective of religion.

I loved how the voice of the story was neutral throughout the book which made the impression of the story better.

Love Pride Virtue and Fate is the best book for

Mythology geeks
Hindu folks in search of a good summary book
And short story fans if you may.

The stories have small link with each other but the epilogue sums up how everything is connected in God's moves on the great war of Mahabarata.
