fathima_ashab 's review for:
The Demons of Jaitraya
by Shubira Prasad
An Indian mythological fiction, first book in the trilogy, that continues in the Kaliyuga long after the Ramayana ends where Hanuman was asked by Ram to raise and train a group of warriors who will born multiple times in different periods of time to gain the ability to kill the demons that still lurk in the nooks and cranny of the Earth and awaiting the destruction of the world and to control us using their demonic powers. This is clearly yet again another war between the good and the evil but with a twist of magic and tools from modern fictional worlds such as invisible cloak, time turner and superpowers.
I really enjoyed the plot since it was so interesting with many factors that I considered seeing in the Indian fiction which we often come across in other fantasy series. There were few instances that really gave me goosebumps but I found the editing so minimal which really put me off. It's a trilogy and I felt the author could have taken time to sit with the characters a little long instead of rushing to actions throughout the book. I also found few things repetitive and could have been easily avoided and the story would have been still good to understand. But I am not blaming the author. She definitely has done a great job with research and themes. I really appreciate it but the editing should have been at least better if not the best.
I would give 3 stars for writing this epic fantasy and I am sure the author has the potential to do better.
