The Immortals Of Meluha Book 1
1900 BC. In what modern Indians mistakenly call the Indus Valley Civilisation. The inhabitants of that period called it the land of Meluha a near perfect empire created many centuries earlier by Lord Ram, one of the greatest monarchs that ever lived. This once proud empire and its Suryavanshi rulers face severe perils as its primary river, the revered Saraswati, is slowly drying to extinction. They also face devastating terrorist attacks from the east, the land of the Chandravanshis. To make matters worse, the Chandravanshis appear to have allied with the Nagas, an ostracised and sinister race of deformed humans with astonishing martial skills. The only hope for the Suryavanshis is an ancient legend: When evil reaches epic proportions, when all seems lost, when it appears that your enemies have triumphed, a hero will emerge. Is the rough-hewn Tibetan immigrant Shiva, really that hero? And does he want to be that hero at all? Drawn suddenly to his destiny, by duty as well as by love, will Shiva lead the Suryavanshi vengeance and destroy evil?

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
'I must confess I think her as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print', wrote Jane Austen of Elizabeth Bennet, the heroine of Pride and Prejudice. Few readers have disagreed. Yet Elizabeth's vivacity, beauty and wit leave Jane Austen's hero Mr Darcy unmoved on their first meeting, and. his aloof superiority is more than matched by Elizabeth's cool disdain. Darcy is peremptorily dismissed - 'the last man in the world I could be prevailed upon to marry' - whereupon, in one of English literature's sublime volte-faces, Elizabeth is compelled to realize that hasty first impressions are not always the truest. Pride and Prejudice is'probably Jane Austen's best-loved work and certainly her most popular. In its sparkling comedy of love and marriage, wit, form and feeling achieve a perfect balance.

Novel by Jane Austen
‘He began to feel the danger of paying Elizabeth too much attention’. Pride and Prejudice , one of the most famous love stories of all time, has also proven itself as a treasured mainstay of the English literary canon. With the arrival of eligible young men in their neighbourhood, the lives of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet and their five daughters are turned inside out and upside down. Pride encounters prejudice, upward-mobility confronts social disdain, and quick-wittedness challenges sagacity. Misconceptions and hasty judgements bring heartache and scandal, but eventually lead to true understanding, self-knowledge, and love. It’s almost impossible to open Pride and Prejudice without feeling the pressure of so many readers having known and loved this novel already. Will you fail the test - or will you love it too? As a story that celebrates more unflinchingly than any of Austen’s other novels the happy meeting-of-true-minds, and one that has attracted the most fans over the centuries, Pride and Prejudice sets up an echo chamber of good feelings in which romantic love and the love of reading amplify each other.
