On a huge battlefield stand two armies facing each other. The dust stirred by soldiers covers the sun. Rain-clouds shower flesh and blood, drenching the troops. Along the ground a wind rises; the small stones that the wind carries with it, hit the warriors.With cinematic effects, full of cuts and intercuts, Vyasa-with 1600 electrifying visuals for hot-hearted adults-sets in motion the battlefield of Kurukshetra. From the birth of the Pandavas and Kauravas to the interpenetration of life instincts and death instincts, this first book in this graphic book series rolls out the beginning of interplay of lust and violence which gives to the tale of war, revenge and peace the unmatched regal look.
Vyasa appears for the first time as the compiler of, and an important character, in the Mahabharata. Actually, he was the expansion of Lord Vishnu Himself who came in Dwaparyuga to make all the Vedic knowledge available in written form which was available in Sound form at that time. He was the son of Satyavati, daughter of a ferryman or fisherman, and the wandering sage Parashara (who is accredited for being the author of the first Purana: Vishnu Purana). He was born on the meet of two rivers Seti and Madi. The place is named after him as Vedvyas, possibly the modern-day town of Damauli in the Tanahu district of Nepal. He was dark-complexioned and hence may be called by the name Krishna (black), and also the name Dwaipayana, meaning 'island-born'.
