Prince of Thorns by Mark Lawrence.

Title : Prince of Thorns.

Author : Mark Lawrence.

Pages : 373

Synopsis.

Before the thorns taught me their sharp lessons and bled weakness from me I had but one brother, and I loved him well. But those days are gone and what is left of them lies in my mother’s tomb. Now I have many brothers, quick with knife and sword, and as evil as you please. We ride this broken empire and loot its corpse. They say these are violent times, the end of days when the dead roam and monsters haunt the night. All that’s true enough, but there’s something worse out there, in the dark. Much worse.

 From being a privileged royal child, raised by a loving mother, Jorg Ancrath has become the Prince of Thorns, a charming, immoral boy leading a grim band of outlaws in a series of raids and atrocities. The world is in chaos: violence is rife, nightmares everywhere. Jorg has the ability to master the living and the dead, but there is still one thing that puts a chill in him. Returning to his father’s castle Jorg must confront horrors from his childhood and carve himself a future with all hands turned against him. Mark Lawrence’s debut novel tells a tale of blood and treachery, magic and brotherhood and paints a compelling and brutal, and sometimes beautiful, picture of an exceptional boy on his journey toward manhood and the throne.

Words of AT.
This book is amazingly powerful and quite different. Have you ever come across a HERO of a book who rides with a gang of 40 members killing whom he wishes and raping whom he likes? No? Then, let me introduce  you  to Honorous Jorg Ancrath! 
                           He was soft and gentle like you and me, but situations made him a villain. Watching his brother and mother killed brutally, Jorg hangs on thorns bleeding his life. Even though he is removed from thorns, the scars and lessons stay with him. a young boy of nearly 13 burns kills a village, burns a kingdom, drives road brothers and he becomes a King. 
                      The book is quite fast. No meat nor fat just the muscle and skeleton. Although it is fast, it is quite amazing. some of you may not like it because of the scenes, episodes, Jorg's Attitude, but it surely is a worthy read. the character development is amazing. The story is split into present day events and past, i.e. four years earlier, here you can see the old Jorg and New Jorg. It is really a promising start to a trilogy. Completely loved it!

My Rating : 4.2/5

This book is Beautiful. It's completely Great full of strong feelings. Read it, break you heart, learn the lesson, Live on. The Authors have done an aboslutley Splendid job. The book is not very long. 160 pages, whole. To say it perfectly this is not a whole life biography of a person who's hunting for his true love nor  it is an important incident that occurs  and you say and cherish whole life, This is a story in which the  past, present and future of a person who has absolutely no idea who his real love is, is neatly woven. 
                                   It starts with Puneet, said in his own voice, who sees his FUTURE son. His FUTURE son helps Puneet to get on with Myra. But then his life is changed. He begins to feel a hollow emptiness in his life. Roshni? who was she? and who is the girl who keeps on coming in his dreams? or better Nightmares? Rishi, his future son says he's from Puneet's PAST. Then with his son's help, he is said the truth by his mother. and Then, Nothing is normal.
                     Very great book, the story is told perfectly. The truth of his life will steal your heart, the end of the book breaks your heart and in the end this is a perfect story. There is no problem in the consistency, it beautifully flows as the new born river. I would recommend this book to any one because the idea is different and new. and the lessons which are hidden between the pages and paragraphs are larger than you think.

My Rating- 4.8/5

The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom.

Author – Mitch Albom.

Synopsis.

On his eighty-third birthday, Eddie, a lonely war veteran, dies in a tragic accident trying to save a little girl from a falling cart. With his final breath, he feels two small hands in his – and then nothing. He awakens in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a lush Garden of Eden but place where your earthly life is explained to you by five people who were in it. There people may have been loved ones or distant strangers. Yet each of them changed his path forever.

Words of AT.

The book starts with Eddie, the worker in an Amusement Park i.e. Ruby Pier. He dies saving a little girl of whose name he is unsure of. He dies and wakes up in a different place. He there, meets a big Blue Man who is the First Person he meets in Heaven.

                                                      There are some parts in all books, the ones you want to read again and again, adore it and just quote them up in your notebooks and all. This book has only one part as such and the one part is whole Book. Its so beautiful. The only right word to define it is Beautiful. Even though it has lot of philosophical pieces its not put in one grand soliloquy to get bored. Its steered through dialogues. The plot and the idea of afterlife itself is one of the greatest heights of the book. Eddie's five people are most unexpected and the lessons they teach are the lessons which life     teaches us. The end products of Anger, Love and Care are projected in it.

                                                            If you love fables with just great things packed in it, this one's perfect for you. The connectivity of the five members, their lives and Eddie's is like really God's work. None of the five would be there if Eddie wasn't. Eddie wouldn't be there if the five wouldn't. Its really a great network of beautiful things.

                        This has no Particular Religious claim. I would just go one talking about this one because it's really worth. A very great book which every one must read.

My Rating – 4.6/5.

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

Author - J.R.R. Tolkien

Synopsis.
Bilbo Baggins lives a quiet, peaceful life in his comfortable hole at Bag End. Bilbo lives in a hole because he is a hobbit—one of a race of small, plump people about half the size of humans, with furry toes and a great love of good food and drink. Bilbo is quite content at Bag End, near the bustling hobbit village of Hobbiton, but one day his comfort is shattered by the arrival of the old wizard Gandalf, who persuades Bilbo to set out on an adventure with a group of thirteen militant dwarves. The dwarves are embarking on a great quest to reclaim their treasure from the marauding dragon Smaug, and Bilbo is to act as their “burglar.” The dwarves are very skeptical about Gandalf’s choice for a burglar, and Bilbo is terrified to leave his comfortable life to seek adventure. But Gandalf assures both Bilbo and the dwarves that there is more to the little hobbit than meets the eye.

Words of AT.

The book starts with introduction of the hobbits and slowly to THE hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. He is kinda quite guy like the retired quite silent people and then one fine morning Gandalf the Grey enrolls him for and Adventure. Although he refuses he finds himself outside with 13 dwarves on quest to reclaim the home land.

                                                     This book is quite fantastic. It has very great twists and some deaths which give Glory to the tale. I Loved it to hell. Sad thing is there is NO LOT of strong dialogue but its powerful. The book has some very true internal lessons about how people change, how narrow patriotism will demolish you, how greed is really bad in your life. Its quite good. The pace is good not too fast where you can get headaches nor too slow where you have to stop falling from sleep. And also there are lot of poems or songs which are amusing. The book also comes with some illustrations and two maps which  you can refer any time.

                                                            There are great fantasy elements like giant Eagles on which you can sit, wargs and High elves and orcs and One Great Magnificent Dragon whose description is so great that you can almost smell it! There are some parts which you really don't believe and start laughing. There are some parts where you mourn a lot and curse whole life but at the end, it's quite extraordinary tale. There are no loose tails but one. And that one is completely another story that is Lord of the Rings. Many people consider Lord of the Rings as great one but this, is a beautifully sculptured and carefully carved Epic.

Rating – 4.7/5.
