When J. K. Rowling said "This book is for Adults" she meant it literally. While trying to venture into the field of adult readership,
JKR writes a gritty and darkly humorous tale of ugly realities in a quiet town called Pagford. This fictional town seems to have come a long way from
the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and can easily give nightmares to her usual Harry Potter fans.

A Well Researched DISAPPOINTMENT. After reading the Chanakya Chant's by Ashwin Sanghi, the expectation from this book was very high.
In trying to sell history and lots of "conspiracy theory" to the readers the Author forgot to define the main characters in the novel properly.

A perfect blend of the life of the legendary Vishnugupta (Chanakya) with present years Gangasagar Mishra.
When it comes to politics and corruption, modern India happens to be just as torn apart as ancient Bharat.
Then why not revive the most cunning philosopher, the shrewdest Brahmin of all time and reincarnate him to be yet another king maker in present day India.

One of the smoothest reads that I had in recent time. The simple (yet interesting) language used by the author makes it a like-able book.
The character of Jinni is portrayed beautifully and the bitter-sweet love affair between Jinni and Zain adds the required spice to the story.
