Adapted and written in a lighter prose, the book is inviting to any readers who want learn more about the tale. The story is fascinating and gets increasingly so towards the end, with lots of nice surprises. For someone like me who knows nothing about any Hindu stories, I felt like I know a lot more after reading this book. The story is well paced and laden with beautiful illustrations. Each page is filled with scenes of glorious colours -- nothing less for this colourful tale. The characters are also nicely designed. The vector style drawings (known for straight lines and smooth curves) are unique, especially when used to tell mythical tales, and work very well in this case. Sanjay Patel also talked a bit about the making of this book. It took four years in the making, or 7 days per page. Vector drawings are very time consuming because it involves plotting and joining points using a graphic software to form (countless) lines. Basically you have to draw the draft and redraw everything again in vector with the scanned draft. Hats off to him for this tremendous piece of effort. Also included at the back are some sketches of the preliminary ideas. Pretty fun to look at. The cartoon style interpretation of some scenes will give you an idea what the book could have turned out to be if not done in vector style. This is a fun and nice read. I don't know if this book is intended for kids but it's certainly a book anyone can like. (More pictures are available on my blog. Just visit my desertcart profile for the link.) Review: Impressive and fun. - I can only imagine how long it took to illustrate this book. The illustrations are fun and stylish. This is a good way to get kids and adults alike to dip their toes into a different culture’s mythology. I have read books that have made references to this story, but this book makes it easy for anyone to get a simplified version, while at the same time enjoying the tales. I am proud to have it in my collection. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #72,943 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #8 in Indian Literature #20 in Religion & Spirituality Graphic Novels #121 in Folklore & Mythology Studies | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (595) | | Dimensions | 8.25 x 1 x 9.25 inches | | Edition | 1st | | Grade level | 7 and up | | ISBN-10 | 081187107X | | ISBN-13 | 978-0811871075 | | Item Weight | 2.1 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 186 pages | | Publication date | January 27, 2010 | | Publisher | Chronicle Books | | Reading age | 12 years and up | ## Images ![Ramayana: Divine Loophole - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Aj5ZLt5sL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Refreshing, engaging and epic *by P***A on February 19, 2010* Sanjay Patel's take on the classic Sanskrit epic is refreshing and engaging.

The illustrations are fun and stylish. This is a good way to get kids and adults alike to dip their toes into a different culture’s mythology. I have read books that have made references to this story, but this book makes it easy for anyone to get a simplified version, while at the same time enjoying the tales. I am proud to have it in my collection. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow!! It's a must-buy! *by N***I on November 3, 2023* My kids picked up this book at the local library and fell in love with the illustrations. They have never showed any interest in learning about mythological stories but this book sure changed their mind. We borrowed this book one too many times and now own two copies. The story is very well written for little ones to follow. And the jokes keep them engaged. I want to see this turned into a movie soon! Sanjay, I really hope you have Mahabharat in the works now :). ## Frequently Bought Together - Ramayana: Divine Loophole - The Odyssey - Blood on the River: James Town, 1607 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8401039-ramayana-divine-loophole](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8401039-ramayana-divine-loophole) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
