About the Book
The gifted son of a revered rishi and his devout wife, Ramabhadra struggles with his warrior-like instincts, unbecoming of one of his lineage. Unknown to him, Rama carries the weight of an immense prophecy on his shoulders.

Elsewhere, the tyrannical ways of Chakravarti Samrat Karthavirya Arjuna, the king of the Haihayas, has plunged his empire into misery. Once a learned and great ruler. he is now consumed by ego and hubris and driven by the recklessness of one protected by divine boons. Rama must take him on, but before that he needs to embark on a spiritual quest to understand dharma and overcome his own doubts.

In this captivating saga, author Ranjith Radhakrishnan foregrounds lesser-known aspects of the life of warrior-sage Parashurama. What we have is a tale that presents to us a hero for the ages, a man who is much more complex and interesting than an angry avenger. A saga of revenge. love and duty 'Rama of the Axe is the story of Ramabhadra's journey to becoming Parashurama, the sixth avatara of Mahavishnu.
