REVIEW

KaiKa's Songs is a speculative mythopoeic fantasy that explores the origins of gods and their relationships with mortals through a fictional world. The novel is set during no particular time on an island, and rather it defines the time for the island through the songs the people of the island must sing to keep sandstorms at bay, the primary antagonist for the story. Sandstorms are seen as monsters that destroy the island and devour the inhabitants. The novel begins with a proem informing readers of the death of the last mother on the island, which leaves behind only five inhabitants on the island - two men (NooaKhi & LaKhi), two women (KaiKa, the chief & SeeKa), and a blind girl (AiYi).

The plot revolves around the survival of the islanders, the violence of the mad fathers, matriarchal leadership, and reproduction in a situation where everyone is a half-sibling to others. Songs are the only way to transfer knowledge about everything, from hunting to motherhood. The second part of the novel, called Green Island, acts as a catalyst; until then, the story progresses quite steadily. KaiKa's Songs is exposition-heavy and suffers from 'tell, don't show,' which takes away the fun of an immersive experience in a different world built by the author and distances readers from the characters, leading to a complete passive reading experience. Although the characters are well-defined with sharp edges, the plain storytelling makes it boring.

The last few chapters are dedicated to the depiction of the origin of sandstorms and the significance of songs/prayers. The last few pages reveal the potential of the novel that it didn't live up to and fell beneath its possibilities. The book, thus, becomes a tiny fraction of a possibility among the limitless narratives it may have explored with lyrical and creative prose dealing with each feeling of the islanders rather than naming the emotions separated only by commas and not by powerful imagery. The abstract portrayal of the essence of the story through these 150 pages may be futile since it can be conveyed in a short story. My disappointment may be attributed to the fact that I expected it to be an epic fantasy. Overall, I'm glad I got the gist and could understand the essence of impermanence and the transience of existence, where gods rise and fall, planets cease to be,and the construct of time holds the potential to diminish memories in this vastness of history.

Happy Reading!

REVIEW

Summary

Azrar and the Tale of the Curse is a fantasy novel, set in the small village of the Leothe ─ perfect reflection of the Earth─ a world wonderfully created by the author, where the protagonist from the Earth becomes the guardian of Azrar; an ingenious and creatively plotted story about bravery and determination of the main character who selflessly sacrifices everything to protect Azrarians and reinstate power and splendor of the Azrar; that will fire your imagination and would excite you at times.

Narration

Azrar is actually a diary written by Henry Smith, containing his adventurous life story. It is narrated in first-person POV and follows the lead character, Henry. The writing style is pretty fantastic, which is compatible with the setting and the environment. The novel is divided into 21 chapters, where the reader gradually explores the world of Leothe. The language is simple and comprehensible including a lot of author-invented and strange-sounding nouns.

Location and Setting

Azrar is, well, set in a small village called Azrar, the residents of which are suffering from a curse. The story takes place in the year 2016 when Henry unknowingly travels from the Earth to the Leothe. The infrastructure and functioning of this kingdom are portrayed elaborately. Currently, it’s in ruins and indicates very little of what it used to be. Watchtowers, a cave protected with a password, enormous and beautiful castle, sculptures, royal gardens, ponds and a magical forest are some remarkable places you can find in this book. The Derindoras forest is visibly the source of magic for this land that possesses mystifying creatures and unfathomable structures and it is what sets Earth and Leothe apart.

Theme

It is commendable how seamlessly the author AKR has narrated the sequence about Henry finding himself in the whole new world. Indeed, it comes with shocks and surprises. As the story progresses, Henry comes to know about Azrar, the residents, their culture and most importantly, why he is supposed to be there. Every day is a new adventure for him until he sets Azrar free from the curse. Macwood, an important supporting character helps him through this. Henry learns fighting with the sword, gets familiarized with Azrar, fights massive saber-toothed cats called Narzies, becomes more knowledgeable about Azrarians and the curse, fights horned fiery monsters and gets to know more of the secrets concealed from him. Each chapter is packed with absolutely new things and a fresh adventure.

Plot

Children began to born dead in Azrar due to the curse. While some availed the privilege of life, but none could survive beyond the age of 20. There only remain 9 youngsters now who are waiting for their death. Although, when Henry came, Azrarians developed faith in him, as he could be the possible guardian according to the prophecy. He shares an intimate relationship with Meriul, daughter of Macwood. Meriul is one of those nine youngsters, which motivates him further to conquer anything that stood between them.

My Opinion

I personally loved this book and the world of Leothe. I have never read such high fantasy by an Indian author. The mechanism and functioning of this world are what captivated my attention, that not everything is magic-driven. You may find syntax errors here and there in this edition. Otherwise, it’s completely fine. The idea of this story becomes very clear after a certain point and delivers a strong message. The otherworldly setting and creatures don’t overshadow the human feelings and the accomplishment of the protagonist. Narzies are my favorites from Azrar.

Lastly, I would say, this could have been better. It lacks something. The bond between Henry and others seemed illusory. I wish there were other prominent supporting and opposing characters.

Happy Reading!

10 Books I Want to Read in 2020 | Book Blogger | India

1. An Era of Darkness: The British Empire in India by Shashi Tharoor

An Era of Darkness by Shashi Tharoor

It's been a few months that I am planning to read Shashi Tharoor books but didn't get to get my hands on any of it. So, my first goal would be to read Shashi Tharoor, and for that, I have selected this one title which I think can be my good first read by Shashi Tharoor.

Inglorious Empire: What the British Did to India (published in India as An Era of Darkness: The British Empire in India) is a historical text by Shashi Tharoor, an Indian politician and diplomat, about the effects of British Colonialism on India.


Buy An Era of Darkness from Amazon: https://amzn.to/2ZC4wsQ

2. Rebel Sultans: The Deccan from Khilji to Shivaji by Manu S. Pillai

Rebel Sultans by Manu S. Pillai

Manu S. Pillai is an Indian historian and author known for his debut non-fiction The Ivory Throne: Chronicles of the House of Travancore for which he won the Sahitya Akademi Yuva Puraskar in 2017. This year I listened to his interviews and talks and speeches, I was just amazed by this personality. The knowledge he shared with his audience was perspicacious and I couldn't stop listening to his interviews. He changed my perspective about 'history' and now all I want to do is explore more.

In Rebel Sultans, Manu S. Pillai narrates the story of the Deccan from the close of the thirteenth century to the dawn of the eighteenth. Packed with riveting tales and compelling characters, this book takes us from the age of Alauddin Khilji to the ascent of Shivaji.

3. The Ministry of Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy

The Ministry of Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy

While talking about popular Indian authors, we cannot overlook Suzanna Arundhati Roy, best known for her novel The God of Small Things (1997), which won the Man Booker Prize for Fiction in 1997 and became the biggest-selling book by a non-expatriate Indian author. She is also a political activist involved in human rights and environmental causes.

2019 has been a very different reading year for me, I mostly read review copies and could not read the books which I really wanted to read. One of my friends recommended this book right after he finished reading this book, The Ministry of Utmost Happiness, her second novel published in 2017, twenty years after her debut. Also, I would be reading The God of Small Things, but this is my first pick.

Buy The Ministry of Utmost Happiness from Amazon: https://amzn.to/2QxkaSm

4. Jaya: An Illustrated Retelling of Mahabharata by Devdutt Pattnaik

Jaya by Devdutt Pattnaik

I have been reading the first few pages of this book whenever I get a chance, in the library or in Crossword stores, but now I want to just dig into it and read the whole book. Jaya is one of the best modern adaptations of Mahabharata and as I said I have already started reading, I wish to continue. Devdutt's retellings are the way to go if you are looking for mythological retellings.

Devdutt Pattanaik is an Indian mythologist, speaker, illustrator and author, known for his prolific writing on sacred lore, legends, folklore, fables and parables, and for challenging wilful misinterpretations of ancient Indian scriptures, stories, symbols and rituals.

5. The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

As you all know by reading the post: Top 10 Favorite Books of 2018, Erin Morgenstern and her  The Night Circus has charmed all the readers with the phantasmagorical tale of the two empowered magicians. Now after so long wait of six years, she is back with another (her second) captivating novel. The Starless Sea will be following a character named Zachary Ezra who finds an unusual book in the library in which he encounters his own childhood. Strange right? Intriguing. There is much more in the synopsis. Have a look at the Goodreads page. It is going to be as fantastic as The Night Circus. I am craving more of Erin Morgenstern's 'fairytale in one way or another'.

Buy The Starless Sea from Amazon: https://amzn.to/2rDK2Dw

6. Children of Virtue and Vengeance by Tomi Adeyemi

Children of Virtue and Vengeance by Tomi Adeyemi

Legacy of Orisha was declared a trilogy by Tomi Adeyemi. The first in the series Children of Blood and Bone was completely successful and made it to #1 on The New York Times Bestsellers List. The story follows the character Zelie Adebola whose mother was killed by a brutal King Saran who rules over the land of Orisha. The second in the trilogy was released late this year on 3rd December. After reading the Children of Blood and Bone, I was waiting for second release desperately because this is the story you cannot wait to explore.

7. The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

The Handmaid's Tale, originally published in 1985, is a dystopian novel written by Canadian author Margaret Atwood. It is set in a near-future New England, in a totalitarian state resembling a theonomy that overthrows the United States government.

Margaret Atwood is such a phenomenal writer, I adore her writing. I recently signed up for her MASTERCLASS and I'm loving it so far and as a pre-requisite, I have to have a sound knowledge about her literary works so that would be my first step towards learning to write from her.

8. All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr

All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr

Among all these non-fiction, fantasy, dystopian novels I wanted to include historical fiction and I could not come up with a better idea than reading this one. All the Light We Cannot See is a war novel written by American author Anthony Doerr, published by Scribner on May 6, 2014. It won the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the 2015 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction. Set in occupied France during World War II, the novel centers on a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths eventually cross. I'm am really eager to read this book.

9. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

This book doesn't need any introduction but here we go. The Book Thief is a historical novel by Australian author Markus Zusak and is his most popular work. Published in 2005, The Book Thief became an international bestseller and was translated into 63 languages and sold 16 million copies. Recently I bought The Bridge of Clay by Markus Zusak during the BookChor sale. But I think it would be really unaesthetic to not read The Book Thief before I read anything from Markus.

Markus Zusak is an Australian writer of German origin. He is best known for The Book Thief and The Messenger (US title: I Am the Messenger), two novels which became international bestsellers. He won the Margaret A. Edwards Award in 2014.

10. Becoming by Michelle Obama

Becoming by Michelle Obama

I was very excited to read this book when it was launched. I got the audiobook of this and I have already started reading it, few chapters in and I am loving this. No doubt this book is going to be the best book I'll be reading next decade. I hope so.

Becoming is the memoir of former United States first lady Michelle Obama published in 2018. Described by the author as a deeply personal experience, the book talks about her roots and how she found her voice, as well as her time in the White House, her public health campaign, and her role as a mother.

5 Books I Want to Read Before 2019 Ends

Last TBR of 2019

I am back with another End Of Year Content. And this time its 'Books I Want to Read Before 2019 Ends'. But there is a very narrow chance that I would be able to finish them all or even half of them. Therefore we'll just chat about my last TBR. So let's get into it.

1. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Pride and Prejudice has consistently appeared near the top of lists of "most-loved books" among literary scholars and the reading public. It has become one of the most popular novels in English literature with over 20 million copies sold, and has inspired many derivatives that abound in modern literature. ━ Obviously taken from Wikipedia.

I wanted to read this book for very long and I started reading it in the first week of December. I bought this Penguin Classics 1985 Edition from Ahmedabad National Book Fair 2019 because I love vintage editions. I also found Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone (maybe) First Edition, if not definitely the 1997 Edition. Well, we're drifting off the topic here. Okay so first I had to get through 45 pages of the 'Introduction by Toy Tanner'. It was really great to know what this book is about and knowing that there is plenty of research done on this book and Jane Austen, books were written on Jane Austen and other works like essays, retellings, etc. Why this is a very significant piece of literature and similar. It was just mind-blowing and a first step towards reading the classic writing style of Jane Austen. I am still on page no. 108, Chapter 13, inconsistency struck hard. I just hope to finish it but also don't want to rush this because I want to understand it completely.

Buy Pride and Prejudice from Flipkart (Because the sale is ON and this penguin classics edition is available only on Flipkart): HERE

2. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling

Here we go again ━  The book was published in the United Kingdom by Bloomsbury and in the United States by Scholastic. In both countries, the release date was 8 July 2000. This was the first time a book in the series was published in both countries at the same time.

First, I want to confess that I haven't read the whole series yet. My Harry Potter obsession first got me to read Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I so wanted to know what is happening in the Wizarding World right now! To be honest, I loved it at first, I'm sorry but I did. I re-read it and still sort of liked it. Nevermind. I should have read the first book first but I failed there. I could never read ebooks of Harry Potter, it kills the joy. I finished the third book in May 2018. Then finally I got to buy The Goblet of Fire and The Order of the Pheonix recently in a Flipkart sale. Two chapters in and I'm not yet out of The Riddle House. I need to read. More.

Buy The Goblet of Fire from Flipkart (Because they have amazing deals during sales): HERE

3. The Fragile Thread of Hope by Pankaj Giri

Finalist of the Amazon Pen To Publish Contest 2017.  A moving, inspirational fiction about love, loss, and finding hope in the darkest of times. ━  Now, this is from Goodreads.

I was to review the kindle version of this book but then I came to know that it is being published in the paperback version by Fingerprint Publications. So I was waiting for it to be launched and finally, it happened on 17th December. The cover reads "Well-sketched, sympathetic characters. A good read." - Chitra Divakaruni, The author of The Palace of Illusions. And that does enough to intrigue me. I don't know even a bit about this book and I haven't even read the blurb because I don't. I want this to be a great read. I hope so.

4. The Veiled Universe: Cosmic Tales of Science Fiction by Rob Garnet

YOU. WILL. BELIEVE. That's what cover reads and I really did. I just finished this book yesterday and it is crazy and freaking Science-Fiction that I always wanted to read. So, it consists of 11 cosmic tales of science-fiction. I was surprised and shocked after reading each of the tales. I found it pretty brilliant, the ideas and theories of the author (who has two decades of experience in the field of science) about the universe. I often wonder about the universe and the meaning of our existence and the planets and galaxies and stars. It interests me a lot and this book just fed my curiosity no end. I'll be posting a detailed review soon so stay tuned.

Buy The Veiled Universe from Amazon: https://amzn.to/2SBSzBZ

5. AZRAR and the tale of the curse by AKR (AKA Ayush Kumar Rajput)

Among these all the books, first I started reading this book by AKR. I won this copy in a giveaway contest. It's been months I started reading this book but couldn't finish because of my already swollen TBR pile. My favorite genre is fantasy and recently I've kind of started loving non-fictions. I like the story of this fantasy book, there are very few writers in India who write such fantasy themes, sort of epic. I want to finish this book in this year only. God Bless Me.

Beyond the Silken Veil

LAST SNEAK PEEK

The couturier takes out a rosewood colored, cotton thread reel from one of the containers and a big-eyed embroidery needle from the other one. She takes out bobbin from its case and winds the thread around, circles a few times and places the reel into spool pin. She slides the bobbin down through its hole into the needle and it dangles as she presses it against the machine pulley. Clanking noise pulsates across space as she depresses the treadle with her feet while holding the needle against the shiny metal of balance wheel. The moon shines down on the wall across the window, where hangs the painting of an Oxbow. She gazes at the wall when she fits the bobbin to its place under the machine bed. Grasping the thread between her thumb and the index finger, she elegantly takes it from one hole to another then half-wraps around tension assembly and then positions it onto thread take-up lever and finally inserts it into needle eye, which takes her barely a few seconds. She fumbles for once or twice while gathering pieces of clothes strewn across the large machine bed. After retrieving two satin rosewood robes, she puts them under the presser foot and drops the presser bar. Once again, clanking and thumping sound resonates and the sound continues until the sewn clothe completely trails out of the foot. She cuts the strands with shear and clutches the robe, taking yokes in her hands. She raises her hands in the air, relishing the beauty of her do-it-yourself prom dress. She rises to her feet and turns off the lamp as she walks past it. After a while, the lamp resurrects from death and it feels a little cozy as all the casements are shut closed. The silhouette comes into light, delighted. Wearing a wide valorous smile with the matching rosewood gown. Her thick black eyebrows are perfectly arched with a brow pencil and her eyelashes are curled and long. Adam’s apple is sorely visible at the front of her neck. Her thin and long lips are colored the same as her dress with lip gloss. She tries to walk the imaginary ramp animatedly but as the romantic melody begins to thrive somewhere near the room, she starts moving in all directions, dancing. She switches to free-spins and goes round and round endlessly on her toes. She only stops when she feels exhausted and flops into the chair, also music eventually stops. She completely forgets her moments of despair from just a few hours ago and turns crimson. She hesitates a bit before opening the windows and stands still at the window for a while like a mannequin, absorbing the fresh air. The crescent is fading away as the dawn is nearing. She strolls toward the door to find her heels uninjured and immediately slides her feet into it. She starts walking as if rehearsing for her ramp walk at some luxury-brand fashion week. She’s graceful and flawless at her imaginary ramp. A sudden crack booms in the room. One of those thin and long stilettos broke. She collapses to the floor, headlong. Screaming. So does her black haired wig. Screaming. Saving the eternal beauty of itself on the couturier’s head. Footsteps are approaching, getting louder as the sun rises. The couturier is out of senses, but manages to sit up. Now, that brightness is enhanced, the tiny bits of facial hair are easily noticeable. The dress is badly crumpled and looks very messy as the couturier, right now. Couturier gets up to change into the clothes lying beside. The door opens with the voice asking what happened to couturier, but both figures halt by the doorway the moment they see the couturier. One of them is the pianist. Tears streak down the couturier’s cheeks, but stands firmly without twitching eyes any further and looks straight into the man’s eyes.

“Father!”

“You are not my son anymore!”

The pianist leaves without a word and the father shuts behind the door on the way back. Never to open it again.
