Hence, this book gives us an elaborate understanding of various incidents that led to the war (Mahabharata) and how the deeds of various Warriors and Kings had an adverse effect on the lives of their successors. I won’t be listing out my favourite stories as each and every tale in this book will either present a lesson for life or surprise you with it’s plot and climax. You really need to be wise enough to understand the crux, certain tales has to offer, for the growth of your spiritual being. Sudha Murthy never fails to amaze it’s readers with her magnificent stories and seamlessly perfect writing skills. The language is simple yet elegant and convincing at the same time. Owing to this reason, she is one of my favourite authors of all time. Guys, just read this book and I’m sure you will thank me later. Review: Well written and engaging book - I loved this book! I'm so happy that kids at a young age can read this book and know more about Mahabharata and mythology. Some of the stories are known ones, but some are refreshing. Knowing mythology is one thing, but knowing the right things matters. This book is a collection of such short stories from 'The Mahabharata' and I'm so so happy my son is reading such books. Sudha Murthy ma'am has a way of weaving stories in a beautiful way. Overall, a beautiful read. P.S. For those who have read or seen Mahabharata few stories are known. ## Features - Penguin/Puffin - Great one for reading - Compact for travelling ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #5,019 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #77 in Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths for Children (Books) #175 in Fantasy for Children #529 in Children's Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 2,393 Reviews | ## Images ![The Serpent's Revenge: Unusual Tales From The Mahabharata - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91C4KE0waDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must Read ! *by P***A on 13 October 2019* Title : The Serpent’s Revenge Author : Sudha Murthy Genre : Mythology Pages : 181 Publisher : Penguin Rating : 5 / 5 My Review : We are very much aware of the epic tale : Mahabharata but are oblivious to numerous episodes which occurred before and after this magnanimous war.

Stories are very engaging and helps you understand Mahabharata from a different perspective, like why certain characters in Mahabharata died in certain ways? Understanding of why Mahabharata happened in the first place. Connection of Mahabharata with present times is also mentioned in some chapters. All in all it's a fine book for Mahabharata lovers. Read it if you are one without hesitation. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Serpent's Revenge: Unusual Tales from the Mahabharata - The Upside-Down King: Unusual Tales About Rama and Krishna (Unusual Tales from Indian Mythology) - The Magic of the Lost Temple --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/76198830-the-serpents-revenge-unusual-tales-from-the-mahabharata](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/76198830-the-serpents-revenge-unusual-tales-from-the-mahabharata) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
