← Kalki and Sandilyan, great historical novelists of Tamil Why did God make friends? →

A mini list of great Tamil historical novels

July 18th, 2006 · 50 Comments · Books

I’ve talked a little about Tamil historical novels in my previous two posts. Below is a small list of the best novels that I’ve read and enjoyed immensely, and would gladly recommend to anyone.

Sandilyan:

As mentioned in my earlier posts, his best works are

  • Kadal Pura
  • Yavana Rani
  • Raja Mudhirai

He wrote quite a few historical novels. From memory, the following ones are also good, though not as great as the above three

  • Moongil Kottai
  • Vijayamahadevi
  • Jala Deepam

Kalki:

These are the best of his works (I’m not sure how many he wrote)

  • Sivakamiyin Sapatham
  • Ponniyin Selvan
  • Parthiban Kanavu

Akilan:

I’ve read only Vengaiyin Maindhan, not sure how many he wrote. This is a very good novel.

There it is, my list of great historical novels in Tamil. Anyone wants to add more?

Update

Please take a look at this post too

    Kannadasan had written Cheramaan Kadhali and oomaiyan kottai.

    Cheramaan Kadhali won the sahitya academy award when it was published.

  • 2 vijay // Oct 6, 2006 at 4:27 pm

    Yeah, i have read cheramaan kadhali, not sure if the author is kannadasan. Do you know if there is an audio version of these books? I’d love to team up with interested people and make audio versions.

  • 7 vijay // Apr 25, 2007 at 4:28 am

    There aren’t good tamil historical novels these days. It would be great to have another Kalki or Sandilyan or Akilan in the tamil literary world, sigh….

    Bhuvana, you may not get all books on the internet. Remember, they’re copyrighted :-)

  • 19 poniyin selvan // Dec 26, 2007 at 8:47 pm

    hey folk can you get chandilyan novels link especially kannimadam tks and regs Poniyin selvan

  • 20 Narmadha // Jan 9, 2008 at 8:36 am

    I dont think Sandilyan’s novels r available online..lists r avilable..i read thro his Yavana Rani..its about a queen from rome/greek came to Poompuhar to establish their throne here in India. The story happened at the time of Karikala Chola. The hero is his Commander Ilanchezhiyan. I am very much inspired by the plans of ilanchezhiyan in escaping from his exile to Rome. A very good novel..I admire Sandilyan’s ways of making scenes with secrecy..can any one tell me about kadal pura?????

  • 21 Narmadha // Jan 9, 2008 at 8:39 am

    Akilan’s historical novels are
    1)Vengayin Maindhan
    2)Vettri Thirunagar (Krishnadeva Raya Reign)
    3)Kayal Vizhi

  • 22 vijay // Jan 9, 2008 at 8:42 am

    Thank you for your comments.

    Narmadha: Yup, Sandilyan is quite amazing. Yavana Rani is one of his best works. Kadal pura is even better, in my opinion :-) you should definitely read it. Especially the third part, where Ilaya pallavan defeats a big navy, with a fleet of just half a dozen battleships. Sandilyan’s imagination is amazing :-)
    Also read Raja mudhirai. Its AWESOME :-)

  • 23 vijay // Jan 9, 2008 at 8:45 am

    I’ve read Vengaiyin Maindhan, its quite good. Akilan’s style is more like Kalki’s, than Sandilyan’s. Will have to read kayal vizhi and vettri thirunagar, thank you Narmadha, for suggesting them.

  • 24 Narmadha // Jan 9, 2008 at 11:32 am

    can any one tell me about Chitra paavai of Akhilan? Is it a historical novel?
    Murali,Sandilyan’s Kadal pura was earlier available in http://www.ammas.com/topics/History/a110209.html
    but i couldnt access it now..plz check thro it.

  • 25 Narmadha // Jan 9, 2008 at 11:34 am

    Raja muthirai,Mannan magal,Pallava Thilakam,KanniMaadam,Cheran Selvi..
    these are Sandilyan’s works..
    Are these historical novels?
    Has any one read thro these?

  • 26 Narmadha // Jan 9, 2008 at 11:37 am

    I am one among the ppl who admire on Vengayin Maindhan, but got disappointed with kayalvizhi and Vettri thirunagar..
    I didnt find the flow to be that much interesting..
    can any one tell me what is present name pazhayaarai?

  • 27 Narmadha // Jan 9, 2008 at 11:44 am

    I ve also read Pandyan Bhavani of Sandilyan.In it he has specified about Neela Valli.Both reg to Parandhaga Pandyan..Neela valli is his wife,also known as Pandimaadevi/Vanavanmadevi.There is work by Naa.Parthasarathy titled Pandimaadevi abt her..Its not that much interesting..but ppl interested in knowning tamil history can read thro it..

  • 28 vijay // Jan 9, 2008 at 2:37 pm

    Thanks for taking time to comment, Narmadha :-)
    No, Chithira paavai is not a historical novel, just checked with mom. I haven’t read it though.

    Raja muthirai,Mannan magal,Pallava Thilakam,KanniMaadam,Cheran Selvi - all of these are historical novels and I’ve read them. Amongst these, Raja muthirai is the best, others are just average.

    No idea about the present name of Pazhayaarai :-(
    I remember reading Pandiyan bhavani, but can’t recollect it at the moment. Sandilyan has written so many historical novels, but not all of them are good. In fact, some of them are really bad. But the good ones, they’re just toooooooooooo good :-)

  • 29 Narmadha // Jan 10, 2008 at 8:17 am

    great then..any idea about works of Vembu vikiraman.
    i ve started reading kadal pura..i expect it in the same way as yavana rani..will finish n give my comments..
    i am interested in visiting historical places..
    i ve been to Kodumpaalur..i could see only muvar kovil (pathiyilarrku pathi scene) there..no other remains..

  • 30 vijay // Jan 10, 2008 at 2:34 pm

    I’m sure you’ll love kadal pura. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Wow, you went to kodumpaalur?

  • 31 kanchana // Jan 21, 2008 at 3:43 pm

    Thankyou miss shobana
    Thankyou very much for suggesting the link ,found it very useful i took to reading Tamizh novels only very recently ,was wondering where to get these novels luckily i found your suggestion also it gives me great pleasure to view your discussions upon the literary works of our mother tongue

    cheers
    kanchana

  • 32 vijay // Jan 21, 2008 at 4:02 pm

    A BIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGG thanks to all of you who took time to read the blog and comment. I’m so happy to find so many people who’re interested in Tamil historical novels. A lot of initiatives are going on, to digitize books - both commercial (like google books) and open source (like project gutenberg). It would be awesome if we could do a similar project for Indian language books. There are amazing authors in Tamil, Malayalam, Bengali… If we could digitize their books, it would be a treasure house.

  • 33 sabapathy // Jan 22, 2008 at 7:38 am

    Pazhairai is still known as pazhairai only. It is near kumbakonam.

  • 34 parthiban.ka // Jan 26, 2008 at 6:20 pm

    Hello to everybody,
    I am happy to see so much interaction between the citizens on Kalki,Chandilyan,Akilan etc..
    May I request you all to let me remember the social novel written by Chandilyan. I was very impressed by the story very much when i read it some time back (> 20 YEARS)
    Regards,
    Bhupathi
