Sought by Destiny by Monica Ageno is Book2 in the Chronicles of the Fates. It is a successful sequel of the book Sought by Fate. As I am someone who has been closely following this series and the arrival and departure of the characters, I have a different-level bonding and grasping of this book, unlike many first time readers. As in the last part, the novel was left off with Feylin being acquainted with Olron, the Dark Mage, once the king of Gravindale but was  exiled from there. Well, Storm and Feylin formed much part of the story in the book one. As this sequel commences, I wasn’t surprised to find many important characters, including Feylin in the captivity of Death Palace of Olron. Romance is one of the strongest themes of the book. Thus, if you are familiar with mate bond in YA fantasy thrillers, you will have upper hand while reading this novel. Feylin is enigmatic, her character is strong but she is sinister in her own ways, especially choosing mate bond, sometime it looke...

Tom Durwood’s new book of YA stories is as exciting as the previous series with Rupa as a star lead, and other young heroines, in their attempts to solve substantial puzzles for the sake of humanity, destiny, and family. Tom’s stories are omnipresent, back dropped against almost all continents. Multicultural premises and adventure add thrill to the overall layout of the storylines! Yet with some focus on India as Ruby Pi is the title character. In this sensational collection, “The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Aviation Girls” you will meet 9 young heroines associated with flights, landmark aircrafts, etc. They take on the world to prove something greater than the average could perceive. Tom’s books demand time and patience, if that is met, you can enjoy the literary feast he keeps under the table. This aviation book is fascinating with all its stories; unarguably you may find again some of the girls back in the action. Yet it can be read as an independent collection. A young her...

One of the best and finest crime thrillers it is going to be in the year 2025...Asok Pillai has brought the charm of 1960s & 70s through his fascinating cast of characters that make up the entire plotline of this novel, though its title is a Hindi derivation, the novel is written in superbly engaging way in English. A cult classic sense of Indianism runs like banter in the novel. The novel commences with Dr. Sunil Mehra, his father advised him to take a break from the bustling busy life of Bombay. Thus, he heads towards the hills of Gangakesh, a fictional sleepy hill place in India. His encounter with a beautiful village girl Bela takes the novel through the routes of romance. However, as each character is not that it looks like. Like a brilliant Hindi movie, the novel chugs ahead…filled with mystery and aura around each of the characters. That lends an impressive flair to the overall narrative. As the story chugs ahead with optimum pace and incredible tempo, a few more character...

The book holds two novella-type stories, placed against magical realism, with different world building at its helm. You may say that the stories are inspired by author’s experiences with folktales and reading of magical literature since her childhood. As in her books, even in these two stories, readers will experience traversing across magical people, land, portals and other things. Vidya’s smooth narrative let you get introduce and integrate with a new culture and far-away lands. No forced world building.

This is a terrific small-town crime cum psychological thriller. As the title suggests the story is staged against the town Baxiganj, somewhere in Chota Nagpur plateau. This is kind of unique crime thriller/murder mystery. The author has pulled the plot gradually…solely on the psychological sweeps and traits of the characters. There are more than five important characters in the storyline that drive the novel ahead. They are posted to Baxiganj may be due to their problematic attitude in the previous office by their boss PK. Ironically, as the circumstance change, their boss is transported to Baxiganj – now all unpleasant people have to face each other where they have all the facilities but bereaved of one another’s trust and respect. Each one is a suspect when the wife of PK – their boss – is shot down on a scooter. She is almost murdered! But why and by whom? The quest begins quite soon as you chug ahead with the book. There is a terrific yet brilliant study of characters under var...
