Book review: Initiation by Krishna Handa is a treat for those who love thrillers
If you are an admirer of thrillers, Power Publishers' latest release,Initiation by debutant author Krishna Handa, has something that would keep you on the edge of the seat, leave you guessing what would happen next.
From the outset, it was clear that I was reading a ‘’page turner’’ and the action came thick and fast.
The story revolves around the chief protagonist named Vivek who fights against all odds despite his mental illness, his broken family and his addictions.
The story has suspense, twists, betrayal and a small pinch of love.
The author has portrayed Vivek not as a hero of the story but as an ordinary character who has his own shares of regrets and blunders.
Although the book is on infidelity yet it holds the reader's interest.
The story has some interesting and believable characters that would seek the attention of the readers.
The book is a mature and riveting work of the author. His writing style would surely have an impact on young adults.
This book is not just a simple thriller but it is written with such emotions that it would touch the readers in a different way.
This book is a must read for everyone irrespective of their age. One might hate it or love but would surely connect with the characters at the end.
