RAVANA MISSION
© - susitha ruwan
While in Yala, Kelaniya University archaeological professor Rohana Jayaweera was brought to Colombo from a helicopter in the night. He was joined by Nandadeva Deerawansha, a Kelaniya University archaeological lecturer and a journalist Hiruni Thilakarathana to an expedition to explore the sudden accidental finding of archealogical ruins at Horton Plains. They were spellbound on finding ruins of a castle probably seem to be belonged to King Ravana once they reached the Horton plains.
Based on the findings and facts they take the Lankan history beyond that era and they realize they are on trail of an amazing ancient secret.
Meanwhile they had to fight against time to gather as much as evidence from the ruins before an American special op team on their way to destroy the ruins due to a mysterious reason.
If the ruins destroyed, an ancient truth which will shake the world will be earthed forever with efforts to take Lankan history back in time along with historical documents, literature, legends and the evidence supporting it.

Reading Davinci code in Sinhala. That's what is was like. The author has done a lot of research it seems. He has done a good job in presenting the facts. Also he should have known better when trying to add "love" into this book. It's not appropriate here at all.

Exceptional knowledge on ravana and history, but below par story telling. Good book for a someone who is seeking knowledge on ravana but not soo good for someone who is looking for an adventure.

The author has the potential to become our own Dan Brown (the author of Da Vinci Code, Digital Fortress, Deception Point, Angels & Demons and The Lost Symbol)!
The plot contains several holes. May be I detected them because I am an avid fan of Dan Brown :)
Anyways... its his first book and this is the first Sinhala fiction I have come across with such quality of writing with very strong facts included and a lot of research done.
The way the language is handled is really professional! The use of idioms, blending of circumstances into jokes (and vice versa) is really a fresh breath into Sinhala fiction.
Will read this book over and over. Highly recommended to any fiction lover (who can read Sinhala, of course!)
Keep your excellent work up and I am quite confident that you can do even better by studying Dan Brown's work more in detail.
Well wishes

කාලයෙන් වැලළී ගිය රාවණා පරපුරේ උරුමය හඬගා කියන මෙම නව කතාව, කතුවරයාගේ ලේඛන කෞෂල්ය මෙන්ම පර්යේෂණ හැකියාවද මනාව පෙන්නුම් කරයි. එහෙන් මෙහෙන් එල්ලූ කතා අහුරක් නොව, නොනැවතී ඇදී යන දිය පහරක් සේ සිත බැද ගනිමින් කතාව ගලා යන්නේ ලාංකිකයෙන්ගේ සම්භවය හා රාවණ සමයේ සිදුවීම් ගැන විස්මය සහ ආඩම්බරය සිතට ලබා දෙමිනි. නව කතාවේ තේමාව, ලේඛන ශෛලිය හා අන්තර්ගතය කතුවරයාගේ දක්ෂතාවය ලොවට කියා පායි.

Got a Dan Brown vibe here. Brilliant work in mixing ancient lore with a storyline set in the modern era. Must appreciate writing the plot not only around the folklore but also with textual and historical findings as proof, though the excess history parts might be boring to a non-Sivhela fan. Should say, the end teaser was nice.
As for conclusion: enjoyed this book so much.
