“Staying awake through Maha Shivaratri is easier with Shiva’s legends to read between prayers. Save Ravana’s daring request for the sleepiest hour, when everyone needs a jolt.”
A princess sets her heart on a god her father can't stand.
The Story of Shiva is a vibrant comic retelling of legends from Shiva's life, and of how he came to be called the Defender of the Universe.
Princess Sati longs to marry Shiva, though her father, King Daksha, calls him "a wild man who lives with ghosts". Undaunted, she turns to prayer and penance to win his heart. In another tale, the mighty Ravana asks Shiva for a startling reward: the very palace they stand in.
Why readers love it
- Sati's bold reply to her father, that choosing her own groom is her right.
- Ravana, drawn with a long row of heads, making his daring request.
- A cover full of Shiva's symbols: a trident, a damaru drum and a snake around his neck.
