My Review
The Aravan Head by Arvind Narsima is a ‘well described and the most
entertaining thriller”. This book is page turner which revolves around the protagonist
Arya the police who tried to bridge between mysterious incidents which were
occurring one after the other. This book is complete mixture of action, drama,
thriller and love. After reading this book I felt like I was watching movie on
television with strong plot and amazing character building.
The plot is something which will surprise the readers page after page.
It is totally unpredictable and packed with action. The book commenced with
three hideous murders at different places in different locations and in different
timing, but everything was in loop which readers will realize at the end.
The plot centers around the title “The Aravan Head” which is said that
it might cure disease and a god of transgender communities. The story moves
both in past and present which will make its readers on the edge. Somewhere you
will find yourself in a fix. The moment you will feel that you have solved the mystery
it gets more deepen and darken. Characterization is something which is very
strong point I considered about this very book. They actually look alive to me.
Every page is like a clue given to you to solve, the more you solve the more it
gets complex and ultimately book will leave you in amazement.
Multiple characters which never get mixed with one and the other, is
something which I really liked about the book. A personally enjoyed read Arya
part, which is cop and hunt to solve the murders. He was type of person who
shoot and talk less. Typically what we see in movies.
Talking about the language which was very good and enjoyable. The title
and cover justifies the crux of the book whereas the book talks about social
topics which didn’t hindered the path of enjoying this thriller action packed
book.
I would rate it 4/5 stars. I’m glad that Arudha Club for sending me a
copy of this novel.
