Fairly disappointing. I'm not very impressed by the translation. Drier than it seemed like it needed to be. Really didn't give much insight into characters and motivations. Rama came across as an arrogant jerk who did the wrong things for the right reasons. At least we're told that they're the right reasons. It's never really made clear why his word is more important than his responsibilities to his subjects. Nor why it's okay for him to torment a demoness who's fallen in love with him. Nor why other people's opinions of his wife are more important than his own. This translation actually gave less detail and less insight than the Indian comic books I read as a kid. Perhaps it would be better to read another translation.
