Second Edition (Richly Annotated)
A powerful story of the spirit of the Khalsa-Sundri will leave you inspired long after the final page.
Sundri is more than a novel-it's a window into 18th-century Punjab-one of the most turbulent periods in Punjab's past. Set against the backdrop of Mughal decline and Sikh resistance, this gripping tale weaves faith, courage, and resilience into one unforgettable journey.
Against this backdrop, a young woman's quiet strength begins to shine. What starts as a personal tragedy grows into a tale of courage, conviction, and spiritual awakening.
