The title
is not original and unique; there was a book by the same title written by Love
N. Lee. Authors should give a second thought and work on finding a title that makes
their work unique, a lot of people are dependent on search engines to find
details of anything and everything; books are no exception.
I am
reading this author for the second time, his first book “The group of fools” didn't
strike any chord in me and I was looking forward to read this book as I really
wanted to see if the writer evolved or not. I was taken aback when I saw that
the book is published under a self publishing unit…..But, I was wrong. My
assumptions were stumped when I started reading the book.
I liked the
fact that this book is a quick read, just 130 pages and you are through with a
story with some twists and interesting turns.
The
character of Sam Chacko is the most interesting while the climax is been ended
with a hope that there can be a sequel following to this book, I will not be
shocked and to be honest, I will be waiting.
Talking
about the language and the editing part of the book, Author is improving! I
read his first book and I was switched off as the book had so many errors however
with this book, if I have to compare with his debut book, this is far better as
a final product. Though the language is still not very crisp which is really required.
The narration of the story is simple, if it was to be complicated, there would
have been some added pages in the book.
The cover
page is nice and attractive, the quality of the print is above average and it
can do average business however the availability of the book can be a
challenge. I have no idea if the publisher is doing something to market the
book or not however as per my experience self publication units cannot give a
structured marketing to any book for which they are charging to publish in advance;
it makes no business craving for them to spend some extra thousand bucks.
I liked the
book and I wish the author good luck for his future ventures.
