I have read Shiva Triology so I have to compare the two. In both, Amish has humanize Hindu Gods, and in doing so he has taken lots of liberty.
Most hindus are aware that Satyug is followed by tretayug( Ramayana era) and Dwapar( Krishna Era), however we have been told that Dwarika is many millennium before Rama time while Prince bhagirath is chandravanshi many millennium after Ram( Bhagirath was suryavanshi and Rams ancestor). There are lots of mistakes like that.
Moreover all non human characters like Jatayu to Ganesh and Hanuman are deformed humans( Nagas). However these are interesting reads, though Shiva Triology is much better written than this. Here author has tried to emphasize on philosophy esp in the beginning which seems to inspire by modern day India( on rape juvenile laws etc.) its ok to read once, not as good as Triology.
