About this listen
A profound, epic thriller set in Bombay—a standalone novel and a sequel to the international bestseller Shantaram.
The first glimpse of the sea on Marine Drive filled my heart, if not my head. I turned away from the red shadow. I stopped thinking of that pyramid of killers, and Sanjay"s improvidence. I stopped thinking about my own part in the madness. And I rode, with my friends, into the end of everything.
Shantaram introduced millions of people to a cast of unforgettable characters through Lin, an Australian fugitive, working as a passport forger for a branch of the Bombay mafia. In The Mountain Shadow, the long-awaited sequel, Lin must find his way in a Bombay run by a different generation of mafia dons, playing by a different set of rules.
It has been two years since the events in Shantaram, and since Lin lost two people he had come to love: his father figure, Khaderbhai, and his soul mate, Karla, married to a handsome Indian media tycoon. Lin returns from a smuggling trip to a city that seems to have changed too much, too soon. Many of his old friends are long gone, the new mafia leadership has become entangled in increasingly violent and dangerous intrigues, and a fabled holy man challenges everything that Lin thought he"d learned about love and life. But Lin can"t leave the Island City: Karla, and a fatal promise, won"t let him go.
Fans of Vikram Seth, John Irving and David Mitchell will love Shantaram and The Mountain Shadow.

Written with love and great understanding.
I absolutely loved Shantaram and enjoyed this sequel almost as much. Wonderful characters, great love story, philosophical discussions and realisations. Written with love and great understanding of the human condition and in particular the Indian culture.

A Good Read
I was really looking fwd to this book as shantaram is one of my faves. I enjoyed the book overall but I did struggle with the main character who seamed to change he’s ways and contradict him self from chapter to chapter. Also rambled at times with confucius type sayings. But overall worth the listen. Cheers Matt

Enjoyed it
Overall enjoyed it.
I did fast forward through a few boring parts such as the discussions around philosophy as it bored me but overall, I did enjoy this as much as I enjoyed the first book.
