Review- Arjun: Without A Doubt is the debut novel by Dr. Sweety Shinde which tells the story of Epic Mahabharata from the Arjun and Draupadi's perceptive. The narration by the Arjun and Draupadi, two of the most beloved characters of Mahabharata is the most exiting thing about the novel.Even we all know the story, it still holds surprises.The language of the book is inviting and the authoress has her own style of narration which is intriguing. There are some quotes and one liners in the book which makes  the reading interesting. Characterization of the book was very amazing. It was fun to read about the Arjun and Draupadi's relation. Authoress has succeeded to penned down emotions of Arjun and Draupadi, which makes the reading a new and fascinating experience.
Here are some of the line liners from the book:

" Religion is nothing but a series of conveniently placed loopholes"
" Passion is a feeling born to bear pain. Bear it, or let go"
" Power does not justify sin. Power is not virtue. Virtue is that which lasts inspite of power"
" Absence of questions is not proof of answers"

Though the language is intriguing and story tells us the Epic, the pace of the story was fast which makes the reading experience quiet difficult.

Overall the book is a treat for all those who adores Arjun and Draupadi. I recommend this book to all the Mahabharata and Mythology fans. You can grab your copy at Flipkart, Amazon or any book store near you.
