Kadal Pura

Kadal Pura (, lit. Sea Pigeon) is a Tamil language historical novel written by Sandilyan. The story is based on the ancient Tamil Chola dynasty. It was named after the fictional ship built by the Chola Commander Illayapallavan (a) Karunaagara Pallavan, who later became King Thondaiman. The novel is about the Chola kingdom's invasion of Srivijaya (modern-day Malaysia and Singapore) and Kalinga (currently the state of Orissa). It's a work of "fiction" with a few historical characters thrown in "anachronistically" (example, Aguda was born in 1068, but appears in the novel as a 25-year-old).
Dr L. Kailasam continuing the story in his Victimology based Novel Rajali, and the historical characters of Kadal Pura appeared in RAJALI in their old ages.
