The story takes place at Karya Kunj a small village located at the foot of Nirmalaya mountain range. All was going well when the old legends started coming true and the locals were terrorised by the rising fear of the White Giants who till now were residing on the piercing and biting ice mountain i.e. Nirmalaya. People were terrorised as they had only heard about these White Giants only in the fairy tales but when they heard some noise during an immediate union one night they all decide to take a quick solution to all their queries which were there at the back of their mind and save the people and their village from the unknown danger that lays ahead and they even start praising the One God which they have heard in the fairy tale too. There are four mountaineers who are set on the journey and they were least expecting to encounter the White Giant, when all of a sudden the Giant comes out of nowhere which creates a great havoc in the abode of the Giant which makes the situation more revengeful and the Giant is adamant to tear apart any human it comes across.

How will the villagers manage to restore the lost peace and as the fairy tale turned out to be true and the White Giants came to be alive is it true that there is The One God? How will the villagers manage to win over the situation and get The One God to their side? To know more read ‘The Alpha Yeti’.

My Views:

The settings of the book are realistic and we get to see the characters views and the problems they face while fighting the Giant. The struggle and the plight of the villagers how they are neglected by the Government is a real life situation as there are many villages which are still unknown or people have not heard of and the problems they face have no solutions as they not equipped with modern day facilities like medical facilities, educational facilities due to which the situation gets worse and same is the situation with our Karya Kunj. The author has done an excellent job of portraying the plights and the struggle that the villagers are facing with very less or no resources. 

The book was a little confusing at places as there were too many characters and there were too many things going at the same time such as the village was very small but then they build a fortress and there are hundreds of soldiers fighting the Giants which makes me question as to where they managed to arrange so much of man power and other resources?

The plot of the book is exciting and will keep the reader on edge and the readers would want to know what happens next. Loved the writing style of the author it kept me hooked right from the start.

I would surely recommend this book to those who love reading adventures. I would also suggest people to go ahead and dive in the story and live the adventurous lives of the villagers of Karya Kunj.

My Ratings: 4/5

Dancers in the Dark Author: Ejaz Ahamed Pages: 298               After reading this book, the very first thing that came to my mind was, ‘Is there humanity?’ If yes what is humanity? This was a very emotional read for me. The story revolves around Kalki, her brother Karthi, and Shreyas whom we will meet later in the story. Karthi is a seven-year-old who is suffering from a skin condition that makes her skin dark compared to other dark people. People are constantly making fun of her calling her a ‘darkie’ and some even call her ‘ugly’. This has affected the poor girl to a very great extent to the point that instead of playing and having fun she is constantly thinking about how she can turn her skin fair. Her brother Karthi, is always there by her side trying to save her; and protect her from these kinds of people. However, one guilt is still constantly peeking its head out from time to time for Karthi. Karthi was once le...
