Book review of Protostar

Book review of Protostar

“There is a force that exists in this universe that is uncontrollable and impossible to contain by any man, creature, or entity. It is an overwhelming, all-consuming power that can either build or break whatever it touches. That force . . . is something called love.”

Book Blurb

On the brink of Civil War, the Torrian Alliance continues with its mission to obliterate Star-children across the universe in order to suppress an intergalactic evil. Following the recommendations of his Council, King Gregorio Derry has agreed to send his only son William, on a mission to restore honor to his family. What starts out routine, becomes a lot more complicated as an inopportune crash landing delays the assassination. During this time, William begins to form a 'connection' with Sydney that challenges his inner being. But this conflict is the least of his problems, as a conspiracy back on his home planet Fabricius threatens the lives of those he loves and his father's royal legacy. Along with that, he must unravel a hidden threat here on Earth that seeks to secure a vested interest that threatens both his and Sydney's safety. Will William be able to complete his mission or will he choose love, sacrificing everything he stands for?

My review

It’s simple, soft and is a wonderful book that you can read it at one go. It is an incredible piece of story on love of two lovebirds that apparently don’t belong from two different states or countries but in fact they belong from two different parts of the universe. Prince William Walker Jeremiah Derry, who is destined to kill the star child from earth, Sydney, falls in love when he meets her. And the love blossoms with the passage of time but IMPI, an artificial intelligence assists William in his endeavours on Earth and helps him find the star child. But the love of Sydney and her grandmother Sarah make him feel more at home and the thought of killing Sydney, fades away and he vows to protect the Star Child with all his might for it is only love that conquers all. The climax of the novel is just thrilling and it keeps you in the hunt of what happens next.

A must read book for all those who want to know what it is to love a guy from another Universe. Braxton, has done a wonderful job in proving that Love alone is the most powerful force in the Universe

Just grab a copy of the Protostar by BRAXTON A. COSBY as soon as possible for you can’t afford of not having the book on your book-shelf.

Book Review of Nazaqat

Book Review of Nazaqat

Book Blurb:

Naazani, a shy girl with a lonely childhood, was born and brought up in Dehradun. She moves to a metropolitan for further education and gets absorbed. In a series of events, she decides to adopt prostitution and becomes one of the most successful high profile escorts of the city with the help of her manager Sharat.

In a quest to be successful, she leaves her friends behind and dedicates more time to her profession. Nazaqat witnesses a police raid at a nearby place and the real scenario of prostitution terrifies her.She decides to take a stand and do something about it. However, Sharat convinces her that she is not powerful enough to make a difference.

Nazaqat retires and pool all her money and starts a restaurant – Joy

foods in partnership with Sharat. The business grows and soon enough they have numerous outlets in various cities and Naazani Singh Shekhawat emerges as a significant entrepreneur of nation.

To cherish the old memories, she organizes a group together and calls all her old friends. Next morning, it is found that something drastic happened the night before. 

Meanwhile, she invites an author – Matthews, who is an old acquaintance to pen down her own biography. He visits her each night and in a series of ten nights, her story finds its crescendo.

Will prostitution be legalized?  What’s her intention with the biography she is planning? What shall be the fate of Naazani Singh Shekhawat aka Nazaqat?

Nazaqat is a very detailed and carefully woven story which is a unique blend of thrill and drama. It is a refreshing story about a girl who adopts prostitution on her own will and starts a quest to legalize prostitution in India. While it’s entertaining because of the commercial voice, it also addresses grave issues of feminism, prostitution and homosexuality in society.

My Review:

My first impression of Harsh Agarwal novel, “Nazaqat” writing under the pen name Sasha H Singhal was that the story was a bit exaggerating. And it gave me the expression that the book was for Indians only.

                                I was quite disappointed for the first 100 pages as the story was just on how Nazaqat takes up prostitution and the story revolved around her and her friends. I was just about to stop reading when I reached the eighth night of storytelling by Nazaqat, where the story became quite interesting. The climax was very good and the twist it had in the end was truly fascinating and it was totally unexpected from what happened initially in the story.

                                Nazaqat fighting to legalize prostitution in India, was by far had been already accepted by law. And suddenly when the world around her came to rest and she was at peace, she was murdered. Quite a dramatic end! And the protagonist of the story was dead.

Find out why was Nazaqat killed and by whom and why, in the Novel “Nazaqat”. The story will change the way you thought prostitution is and will make you aware how big the situation is and why girls are drawn towards it.

I just loved how the story was brought to its climax.

I would like to thank Harsh Agarwal for considering me to review “Nazaqat”.
