I really like this version of the Mahabharata. I love the drawings that Epified does and the narrative does a great job of explaining the stories as well as what they mean.
Part A discusses everything from the beginning of the Mahabharata until Dhritashtra and Gandhari's marriage, as well as Pandu's marriage with Kunti and Madri. Everything in the story so far is lined up with what I read in R. K. Narayan's Mahabharata. I really like how the narrator stated that everything in the story happened as a result of something before and after the situation (like of like a huge cause-and-effect cycle or karma cycle sort of thing). I could see those things clearly with the gifts, boons, and curses placed on various characters throughout the Mahabharata.
If I were to write a story about this part, I would focus on one aspect of the cause-and-effect or karma cycle. For example, I would maybe discuss the story of the eight sons that Ganga drowned and what they did in their past life that caused them to have the fate they did.
