Shadow of Life

  The story revolves around two sisters: Mary and Constance. They live in a house where nobody visits, and they hoard food items as if many people live in the house, but they are only three. The protagonist is Mary Katherine, and it’s hard to form an opinion about her. Most of the time, I liked her and conformed with her thinking, but as I read further something didn’t feel right. Yet, I could not put my finger on it. In the book, there were many instances where you wanted to make things right, but by the end, you questioned your choices. Despite knowing the suspense, you want more from the story and don’t want to stop there. From the beginning, the characters were eccentric, which resulted in a love-hate relationship with them. I like the way the story is shaped, as it keeps you on your toes. Also, the ending felt abstract as it leaves the reader a lot to ponder upon things. I didn’t know that it is gothic fiction. But after reading a few pages, I understood it has a dark theme....

It's the last book in the time traveller series. I have enjoyed the previous two books and this one too is at par. A few new characters were brought forward this time, which made the story interesting; on one hand, nobody can find Tej and on the other hand, an AI is on its way to destroy the world. After a while, Tej comes backs to earth and this time he has become more powerful and knows how to control his powers efficiently. The characters are well built, and I loved how Tej's character has grown until now. The story building is too good as it keeps you hooked and you wouldn't want to put it down until you reach the end. The time-travelling experience is quite amazing and looks seamless. Generally, I don't read mythology but in it, there is a perfect blend of sci-fi and mythology which makes it more fascinating. This book can be read in one go, and people who love sci-fi and want to explore something new and exciting should go for it. I would like to thank the author ...
