Shiva: The Legend of Rudra

By Ashok K. Banker

Have you ever wondered if Shiva was always the God of Destruction? Or is there an origin story about the most revered of Hindu gods?

After years of meditation and spending time with Ganas, Rudra attains spiritual insight through yoga and extreme penitence. But Daksha, the son of Bramha, has other plans. He attacks villages to carry out his great vision of building an empire. No one can stop the mighty Daksha, but Rudra. But the battle was not easy as Rudra found himself falling in love with Sati, Daksha's daughter. Will Rudra choose love over duty? What consequences does his choice have? Read on to find out... This is the first volume of Ashok Banker's three-part Shiva series. The graphic novel describes the origin story and transformation of Rudra from a powerful ascetic to the mighty Shiva.
