Book Review - Manwaan : The Awakening

 


Title - Manwaan: The Awakening
Author - Abhishek Krishnan
Genre - Fiction(Sci-Fi)
Publisher - Notion Press
ASIN - B0BSVFH3MV

A captivating story that would give the feel of watching a perfect sci-fi movie which is no less than a Hollywood genre. It begins with the introduction of Usur who ruled the underworld. He was just 5 feet but wielded enormous power. He gets an assignment from Mihaara, a fallen angel. Usur commands a few asuras to invade and annex Earth. They had resistance in the form of Manwaans who were half human and half God. At any given point, there were 108 of them. 

The introduction of how these Asuras get into the physical body of humans made me feel the rewind of sci-fi movies. They first capture a vegetable vendor and a customer of his. 

The feel of asuras when they encountered traffic was captured candidly. They did not eat food. Feel the weather. However, they liked the sweat of humans and since the event is set to happen in Bandra and the surrounding areas, it also had the mention of vada pav with chili. 

Rinad, a copywriter at the creative agency “Copy That” was 26 years old. Vinay, Param & Jogi were his friends.  When he gets abducted by Asuras, Jaffer comes to rescue but gets wounded by the Asuras. Calls up Guruji and informs him. 


Who is this Guruji?

Rescue arrives in the form of a giant winged man and a slick female with a bob cut when the abduction happens for the second time.

Then there is an introduction of cops.

Virat Pawar - S.I.

Manohar Deshpande - Inspector

Kamat - ACP 

How their best gets killed in front of their eyes and makes them believe the presence of the supernatural. This leads to the formation of the best squad of 30. Starts investigating. 

Maya, Yuva , Ash, Nivi were some of the angels 

Ash & Nivi draw their lineage to Ashwini Twins. They will never die. Healing capabilities in their blood. Doctors. Creates unique weapons including audicapitator.

Milaayak- one of the seven worthy angels rescues Rihad. Uraavati, Gurgaan - other angels. When things go out of control, Jaffer - Leader of Musafir clan, and a confidante of Guruji come to the rescue.

Shaanti- sis of Guruji comes at the tad end o the story.

Najasuras & Najakshas - commanded by Nagdor join hands with Asuras.

Emakeni - Sister of Mihaara.


Did the Manwaans defeat the Asuras? What did Asuras actually want?  What happens to Guruji, Usur, and others?

Give this story a read. You will fall in love with this.

This book is available on Amazon in eBook and Paperback formats.

Is studying abroad a boon or a bane?

We have always had a debate when it comes to the topic - "Is studying abroad a boon or a bane?" The ideas differ from person to person. If you ask me, I would surely say that Studying Abroad is certainly a boon. Why is that? India is home to many universities which are known worldwide. Having said that, we must also accept the fact that none of them are in Top 20 at least. While there are many factors that attributes to this, when a person has the means to afford it combined with interest and talent, I do not see the reason as to why one shouldn't be educated abroad? While few study for their status symbol, majority of them predominantly study abroad to enhance their career. There is no doubt in it. Take a look at this brilliant video before we could proceed further. Having said that, the option isn't available to all who wanted to go out of India.
