Book Review 107: Quaker by Rohan Singhvi




Unique and gripping, Quaker by Rohan Singhvi is a thriller which focuses on cartel rivalry, mafia and gang wars. set in Warem, a fictional country in Southern Europe, the book tells the tale of Rick Quaker. 
This short and crisp read is quite interesting. 
Characters in this book are developed brilliantly. Each of the characters is provided with a detailed background description. This character-driven narrative is simple yet focuses on the internal struggles of the character.

The writing style and the use of lucid language make this book a very easy read. The use of witty dialogues makes it all the more interesting to read.
The book begins with an introduction to the characters. The writing conventions that are used in the book are also described in detail so that the readers can easily comprehend the story. 
The entire plot is divided into four seasons, which are further divided into several episodes. I would love to see this book adapted into a series or movie.

There is however one thing, which I think could have made this story a better one - it could have been a bit more descriptive. 

Overall, Quaker was quite an interesting read! I absolutely enjoyed reading it. Fans of the thriller genre, this book is for you.


About the author: Rohan Singhvi is studying Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani, KK Birla Goa Campus, and did his schooling from DPS Jodhpur, Pal Road. He is keenly interested in Artificial Intelligence, Nolan movies, and cliffhanger endings. He uses an unconventional style of building direct, fast-paced, and precise thrillers without the use of an ornamental and deluxe style of descriptive displays used in books all over the world. He attempts to combine storytelling with a body of well-defined riddles to increase the immersive experience.


My rating: 3 of 5 stars.
First Published: September 2020
Pages: 182
Price: ₹199

You can buy this book from Amazon.

Book Review 54: Satyayoddha Kalki by Kevin Missal.

Image
Satyayoddha Kalki: Eye of Brahma is the second book of the Kalki Series by Kevin Missal. The first book Dharmayoddha Kalki was quite interesting. The second part is no less than the first one. It's equally good. After I completed the first book, I was very eager to read the second book of the series. After the events that took place in the first book, this book begins with the events that follow. The book begins with the third part - The Coup at Indragarh. (The first two parts - The Battle of Shambhala and The Rise of Kali has been covered in the previous book). To make it easier for the readers, the author has provided with a brief synopsis of the first book at the beginning. The book begins with Kalki's escape from the execution and his journey to meet Bhargav Ram at Mahendragiri. Padma and Kripa accompany him on his journey. On his way, he faces various adversities. There are many subplots intertwined with the main plot. As the story progresses, it becomes more inter
