"The Curse of Kehama, Volume 2 (of 2)" by Robert Southey is an epic poem published in 1810. This continuation follows the evil priest Kehama as he sacrifices to gain godlike power and wage war against death itself. After his son is killed protecting a peasant girl, Kehama unleashes a terrible curse upon her father Ladurlad—yet this curse grants unexpected heroic strength. Through encounters with demons, Hindu gods, and dark magic, Ladurlad must use his newfound abilities to protect the innocent Kailyal and challenge Kehama's devastating quest for immortality and divine dominion.
