Title: AGNIBAAN
Author: S. Venkatesh
Genre: Historical Fiction
Review:
This book is a beautiful thriller mystery read. The story revolves from the past to the present. This book is a roller coaster ride with end number of twists and turns.
The story starts from a fire arrow which has to be shifted from Egypt to India because of the Dark Order who wants to get hold of it.
535 CE
A young warrior sails from Egypt to a secret destination in India, carrying a mysterious package from the Great Pyramid. He guards a secret for which wars have been fought, for which men have staged the most ruthless massacres. But the forces of darkness are not far behind.
Present day
The favorite for the US Presidential election is assassinated. Nuclear submarines are destroyed. An Indian army convoy faces a deadly border attack. And a terrible fate awaits Delhi, as the city hurtles towards a long night of destruction.
Yet, this is just the beginning.
As the trail of the AgniBaan races from desolate lakes to dense jungles, from lost cities to hidden temples, from the US election campaign to bloodthirsty underground duels, it is clear that an ancient prophecy is coming true.
I loved the way story has been moulded. One of my favourite historical fiction. The language is simple and easy to understand. The cover is beautiful and attractive with a simplified title.
Rating: 10/10
