Publisher's Synopsis
Bhaskara: The Last of the Varmans is the tale of an ancient dynasty that's unearthed by an archeological expedition. Bhaskara is a prince of the ancient Varman dynasty that ruled Kamarupa for 300 years. A psychic has predicted that he will be the final but most capable King of his line. Having been taught to hunt and survive in the wild jungles and hills that surround ancient Kamarupa, he is called upon by Harshavardhana, King of Thanesar, to join with him in teaching a lesson to Sashanka, King of Gauda, and at the same time to free Princess Rajyasri from captivity. This adventure dramatically changes Bhaskara's fortunes. During his glittering 45-year reign, Bhaskara rules his empire from the City of Eastern Light, near the confluence of the river Jinjiram and the mighty Songdu. But the great city is eventually devastated completely by a natural calamity and Salstambha the successor to the throne of Kamarupa shifts the location of the Capital of Kamarupa. It is only a thousand years later that the ruins of the ancient City are discovered and that the story of Bhaskara: The Last of the Varmans comes to light. P.W.
