Review

“Finally, popular fiction in English finds its feet in India! Arnab Ray, alias Greatbong, takes you on delightful journey: thrilling, scary, magical. It’s a journey you cannot easily forget and a book you will find very hard to put down once you have started reading it. It’s such a pleasure to find unpretentious, easy fiction these days by Indian writers in English who make no great claim to scholarship or literary genius. A wonderful read that will most certainly make a fine movie one day! (And talking of scholarship, Ray is a PhD in Computer Science from the State University of New York but he wears his knowledge lightly and, what’s even more fun, has written a novel that might just hit the bestseller list on publication.) That’s what I like about our times. Even good writing looks so easy.”
