520 _aFrom the pinnacle of the Pandyan Empire’s glory in the 13th century comes a tale of courage, triumph, greed, and destruction. Chandrahāsam: Brothers at War , the first in the series of Graphic Novels from Vikatan Graphic scripted by the Sahitya Akademi award-winning Tamil writer S. Venkatesan and illustrated by K. Balashanmugam, showcases the trials and tribulations of the Pandyans, the last of the Tamil kings. A time when the Sacred Tooth and the Holy Reliquary of the Buddha were brought to Madurai, a city that Marco Polo called ‘the face of civilization’. The story of Maravarman Kulasekara Pandyan, who took the empire to its zenith; his son Veerapandyan, whose valour amazed Malik Kafur, the terrifying general of Alauddin Khilji; and the renegade Sundarapandyan, who scripted the empire’s downfall, betraying everyone for his own greed.
