Sharma's Women

Kerina is under attack and partly occupied by its ancient enemies, its king is corrupt and inept, the army is in disarray, confidence is waning, disunity is growing...How can the nation’s pride, integrity, and security be restored? This dark and epic tale traces the intertwined lives of Jina and Sharma, two shepherd boys who, driven by determination, bravery and patriotism, lead their nation from dereliction to greatness. Jina is hard-headed, practical, loyal, and brave: the quintessential soldier, and the commander who leads Kerina’s army to victory after victory. Sharma is charismatic and visionary: the leader who becomes king of a united Kerina, and leads the nation to unity and greatness. But Sharma has one fatal, tragic flaw that destroys the relationship between Jina and Sharma, wrecks his family, and sours the final years of his life. It is his desire for women. Sharma never could say ‘no’ to his women. And now his weakness has hurried Jina to his end. 'Sharma's Women' is loosely based on the Biblical story of David.
