Review of 'The Secret of the Nagas' on 'Goodreads'

I really enjoyed [b:the first volume|7913305|The Immortals of Meluha (Shiva Trilogy, #1)|Amish Tripathi|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1334659192s/7913305.jpg|11196793] but this one fell flat. Uninteresting storyline, predictable plot twists, and completely hollow characters; in fact I can't even call them such. Just marionettes moving according to the needs of the plot, with no inner consistency. I won’t be reading [b:the third one|12820793|The Oath of the Vayuputras (Shiva Trilogy, #3)|Amish Tripathi|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1357242702s/12820793.jpg|17970410].
