ARANGHYA AND JAHAR

Blurb:

An epic love story set against the background of conflict between two warring nations, surrounded by political intrigue, betrayal and jealousy.

In the barren hinterland of Jahar, Shikhanderi an orphan warrior is grappling with the conflict of his beliefs and the actions perpetrated by his mentor, the dark lord Karmachakra.
In Aranghya, the capital kingdom of the prosperous Bandahar Empire, Emperor Mithilesh awaits the arrival of his nemesis, who brings the promise of certain death.
All hell breaks loose when Ishanya, the beautiful daughter of Aranghya’s royal adviser, is secretly banished to Jahar.
The voice of paradise beckons the scion of hell as the fierce Shikhanderi is drawn to Ishanya, an innocent pawn in the power-politics of Bandahar.
Surrounded by a maze of deceit and duplicity, will Shikhanderi and Ishanya's love ever see light in the darkness that is Jahar?
Will Shikhanderi’s search for his identity rock the very foundations of Bandahar?

From a first time writer, comes a thrilling tale of adventure, myth, and fantasy.

My review:

Aranghya and Jahar is a fantasy novel.

Cover couldn’t do justice to the book.

It is a one time read.

Characters and narration is good.

My ratings: 3.5 stars out of 5.

Didn’t you embrace the wind you felt on your face while riding your scooter? Didn’t it make you smile? Didn’t you cry when you thought about the fact that there might be a few years left for you to live wi...

Let's pour our heart out today!!

People often say, things never come easily to us. We need to work hard and really very hard to get the things in life that we really want to achieve. Often times I think about being a content writer, sometimes a data scientist or maybe a teacher or just staying a reader for life. People say that I've not been doing much in life professionally/ career related because they do not see me growing. I too think about all this many a times because who doesn't?

The conclusion that I reach upon is considerably vague because I just cannot reach a proper conclusion to all these things, I guess no one can. Nonetheless, I reach upon the conclusion that I might have not done what my friends are doing or I might not have achieved...
