Completed my second novel today. When I wrote my first novel, it was to prove that I can write a novel -- not just short stories. When I started on my second novel, I pondered on what I am trying to prove this time? For whom? I realised that it does not matter! So, I wrote this one for my love of telling stories. This story narrates how adversity can affect different people differently. From kings to monks, and warlords to destitutes -- how some crumble under pressure, while others attain heights of greatness while fighting the same circumstances. With an array of complex characters, and a fast-paced storyline, I am sure you will have as much fun reading the novel as I had in writing it.
