Cho Ramaswami has done an immense help for the Tamil audience. This is a book of great erudition. While the focus is on Valmiki there is also comparison with Kambar and Tulsidas on important events.

Go for it.

Very well written. I love the way he explains how differently each event in Ramayana has been described in the three main versions, at the end of every chapter. I got to know that some common sayings involving Ramayana were taken from later adaptations. Thus, this book serves the purpose of letting the reader know how the tales of Ramayana have evolved with time. However, there is bias in writing to a certain extent

Does a good job of summarising the epic and very comprehensive, taking into account other versions of the epic and additions but there is a very clear bias in the writing.
