Dive into the gripping historical fiction thriller, "Gangaridai," meticulously crafted from the annals of history. This novel unveils the probable truth behind Alexander the Great's unexpected retreat from India in 325 BCE. At the zenith of his youth and military prowess, Alexander faced a catastrophic loss—four-fifths of his army vanished during the perilous return through the Gedrosia Desert. Bereft of spoils and succumbing to probable battle wounds within months, Alexander's demise marked a pivotal turn in history. But, how & why did he lose his army ?
Prepare for an adrenaline-fueled adventure across Persia, India, Tibet, China, and Bengal as the story unfolds at the onset of Kali Yuga.
