The Deccan Blossoms - Raya: Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagara(Book Review)

Author Srinivas Reddy captures the prolific life of King Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagara briefly but without dropping anything that astonishing. he covers the life of this 16th Century King who rules the majority of Deccan. The present-day Hampi and associated regions which was once a prosperous kingdom under Krishnaraya come to life in this biographical piece. Srinivas Reddy easily brings the kingdom into our imagination with grace and details. He clears the myopia of religion, caste and all underlying problems that are faced by the country now were not a problem back then. The association of Muslim rulers of Deccan with Hindu king Raya to defeat Adil Shah is an example of that. The narrative is filled with such details that will enlighten anyone reading it, opening eyes to the 16tyh century Deccan. Worth a read.
