⭐⭐ 2/5
Disliked it. Most of the meanings felt like the author was trying to make an assumption. Many times the author seemed confused between yugas and fluent further away from the actual meaning of certain words. There are good parts in the book but I wouldn't rely on this one. I was definitely expecting more from it.
