Book 1: The Conquest
Set against the backdrop of medieval India in 1198 AD , Pages of History is a sweeping generational saga that chronicles the rise of Tarabai Bhorjan, a fearless and intelligent woman driven by ambition, justice, and the weight of her legacy. Born into a lineage marred by betrayal, Tarabai discovers a hidden scroll—a relic of treachery that unveils the sins of her ancestors and the mutiny that robbed her family of its rightful throne. In a land fractured into seven mighty kingdoms, Tarabai embarks on a journey of conquest and reform. From the opulent palaces of Bhor to the formidable forts of Velagad, she forges alliances, battles societal norms, and confronts personal sacrifices. Her quest transcends the hunger for power; she envisions a united Bharata where merit triumphs over greed, wisdom over tradition, and patriarchy crumbles beneath the weight of progress.
But the story does not end with her. Ten generations of her bloodline will rise, each inheriting her fire and facing challenges of their own.
