  Title - The Four Elementals : The Skull Warrior Author - Yajat Sharma Genre - Fiction/Fantasy Publisher - Notion Press ISBN - 978- 978-1637147047 This is the second book in The Four Elementals trilogy. I finished reading the first book yesterday and I could not start reading the 2nd one which I started it today and completed it. Having said that, I can't wait to complete the 3rd one too. For those who have read the 1st book would know by now that the Death Lord vowed to return. He summons the much dangerous Skull Warrior using all his powers despite being contained in the 7 pieces of Arcane Crown) who comes to the Dark World and wreaks havoc. Usually, as and when the sequels are released, the curiosity which the first book/edition has created would tend to die but it is not the case with this second book. In fact, it further triggered the interest in me to start reading the third book as well.  Yajat has even mentioned about Covid-19 in one of the instances in this story wh...

  Title - The Four Elementals : Quest For The Arcane Crown Author - Yajat Sharma Genre - Fiction/Fantasy Publisher - Notion Press ASIN -  B08YVVZ6LN A brilliant trilogy which has surprised me - for its sheer display of imagination in weaving the characters which is not only appealing but would keep you captivated till the end. Considering the age of the author, I am doubly sure that he would go on to become as famous as JRR Tolkien or J K Rowling. The narration was flawless. It is smooth and not even in one place, you would feel the story is lagging for the lack of punch/sequence. To be really frank, I felt like watching a LOTR but in a different approach with different theme. The story begins with Lord Arcane, who is the creator of Dark World (World inside the Earth) ruling it effortlessly and with perfection. He had innumerable powers which were drawn from the Magical Crown . He foresaw the prophecy of has World being captured by dark forces but the salvation comes in ...

As the story goes,  Scavenger, Archer, Daniel and James sets off to Jupiter. Why? Pyros could be located in the area called Necron. The reference of Magic Compartments = Cloud space (similarity - Safe & Secure). The kids along with the Scavenger gets a formidable alliance from the inmates of Jupiter called Greenies. Are they powerful? The riddles which were found in the entire story were simply stupendous. Shows how deep Yajat could think. James - intelligent among the kids. He gives some great ideas from time to time. You will understand only when you read the trilogy. The inclusion of Bermuda Triangle to get sucked into the Dark World is a master stroke by the author. The bookmark in the end of each chapter is a brilliantly thought one. Fo...

Title - Congress Mukt Bharat : Is the Modi Era the End of Congress? Author - Amit Bagaria Genre - Non Fiction(Politics) Publisher - Garuda Prakashan ISBN - 978-1-942426-52-3 A very well researched book. Amit Bagaria needs no introduction since he has authored 12 books so far out of which 5 of them have become No.1 Bestsellers. He has written ten non fiction books and 2 fiction books since March 2018. Let me take you through the contents in this book in brief and my review about the same. The book begins with a bang "Was India for Sale?" Shows the shocking revelations of the archives from the former KGB Employee,Mitrokhin. Preface is something you wouldn’t want to miss. It shows the sheer concentration and political acumen of the author who has dissected the information in a picture perfect manner.  The ecosystem shows as to why some corrupt politicians couldn’t be tried or arrested in a crystal clear manner. Do you know? A raid by the ED at Karti Chidambaram’s house yielded a...
