First, before we move forward with our Authors Interview, I would like to start with an introduction. 1. Could you please introduce yourself to us? Hello New Book Reviewer! I hope you are doing well. Firstly, thank you for having me in this interview. I am Kamal Niranjan, working as an IT professional. I am from Bangalore and an avid reader of books on Indian history and mythology. So, that is pretty much about me in a nutshell. 2. Congratulations on your book. So what inspired you to write this book? Thank you so much! The major inspiration was Amar Chitra Katha that we all love and devour (not literally!) as kids. The wonderful drawings of two horse-riding brothers, Hakka & Bukka, portrays their journey of humble beginnings and how they eventually rose to establish an empire that lasted for 300 years! Little did I know that these comics, in my later years, would inspire me to write a feature-length novel and present it today to readers and history aficionados. 3. What is the book

My story: In today’s times, the most valuable currency for a start-up is the environment it creates and fosters, for its clients as well as for its employees. Be it Droom, upGrad, OYO Hotels & Homes, or Swiggy, the founders of all such successful companies have leveraged the golden rule of protecting and promoting their organization’s values and culture systems to help transform their enterprises into the fabled Unicorns, and in the process garnered enormous goodwill in the market as well as inspired prospective entrepreneurs to achieve the much-coveted start-up success.

In conjunction with importance of values and culture, the book keeps in mind important facets for potential entrepreneurs who are thinking of starting an enterprise.

The Story: The Last Faoii is the powerful and immersive introduction to the Faoii Chronicles.  The Faoii have protected Clearwall with both magic and blade for generations. But when her monastery is attacked and her sisters slaughtered, only young Kaiya is left alive.  Forced to cope without the traditions of her Order, Kaiya travels the country on a mission to avenge her sisters and preserve her heritage. The search brings her not only to dark discoveries and ancient family secrets but also to something she never wanted or dreamed of: an estranged brother.  Thrust into a war at the heart of a broken empire, the siblings face a dark past and darker future while Kaiya learns the true state of the world outside her monastery's walls, the true threat of the army seeping across the land, and her own innate abilities as the last of her kind.  If you love immersive world-building, empowering characters, and epic battle scenes, you'll love The Last Faoii. My take: The Last Faoii is th

Author's Interview with Tahani Nelson

First, before we move forward with our Authors Interview, I would like to start with an introduction. 1. Could you please introduce yourself to us? My name is Tahani Nelson, and I write female-led military fantasy. With hundreds of 5-star reviews and an ever-growing army of Faoii at my back, most people know me from author events, Renaissance festivals, news programs, and conventions across the US-- probably because I'm always wearing full armor and a face resplendent with war paint. While my most notable appearances have been at the Indie Audiobook Awards and Fantasycon discussion panels, I also give presentations about empowerment and creating strong, healthy female role models in modern media. 2. Congratulations on your book. So what inspired you to write this book? I grew up on Fantasy books. I’ve loved them for as long as I can remember. But I never really felt represented in classic fantasy. It always seemed that women fell into one of three categories: 1) They were damsels i

Transported into a strange world of sorcerers, vampires, and ghosts, the three children endure a desperate race to return home which takes them to the edge of war, through the clutches of slave traders and kidnappers, before they discover a deep dark secret.

A Council of Ghosts will transport you into a magical world of intrigue and danger, where sorcerers are pitted against mortals, and where betrayal is a way of life.
