Authors note :

Hello there!

Let me take a moment to thank you for choosing my book! I’m humbled that amidst your daily chores and errands, you have managed to take out your precious time to get overwhelmed in this techno-thriller. Nowadays, because of the indigenous prevalence of eBooks, podcasts and audio books, the habit of reading paperbacks and magazines is slowly getting diaphanous. But no one could avert that enthusiasm of turning pages, smells of a new book, putting bookmarks and marking favorite quotes, while reading is unswerving. I still am indulged to primitive form of reading books as of what are available but it’s really tough for some to put concentration, as uncanny notification tones and time constraints put a snag on that.

The habit of reading and writing one should not digress from, what I opine. It’ll augment your articulation and vocabulary, trivia about unknown facts. It helps you to tone your cerebral muscles and makes you stand out of the herd.

Quite vehemently though, I have embarked on writing my first novel about a dystopian world in the near future where mankind suffers evil’s snarky endeavour. Emerging as a novice writer, there will be flaws and mistakes, so feedbacks are what I request. Always a pleasure to get opinions from your end!

Lots of Love,

We must show them as a nation we stand strong, we are united, and no threats could doom us. It’s a moment of reckoning for them not ours. This affliction to us caused by them will inflict themselves. No intimidation could survive the concoction of courage, tolerance and tenacity.”

He fell out of the bed in pathos. A gloomy nightmare of his teenage life, his bygone days of joining as a cadet, his best friends demise incessantly haunting him now and then. He knew that his fighting days are over, he is incapable of any duties, and have to decompose at the corner of his room, dying with all those laments and suffering.

“Your task is to infiltrate into the campaign and take a position to devastate the arsenal trailers and eliminate Viper. Remember no hostages are killed in action!” the mission report still sirens and bursts his heart. Just for a moments fault, he had to pay such a price? His friend Adik, Colonel Tricas, his troops?

“Adik, don’t you dare leaving me! Listen to me! Adik!” The infidels were wiped off by air strike, and amongst the corpses, he was still holding his friend’s mutilated torso. Leftovers of war are just some bloodshed hues and mourning. He is still uncertain why Adik called the air strike inside the lair in the midst of nothing? His mission was to rescue the hostages and put them in safe zone for extraction. Why he suddenly altered his plans and entered directly into Vipers lair?

Yes, Viper was shot dead by bullets punched to his forehead. But his final mission in battleground is stained with the blood of His pal and troops.

“PERILS OF WAR, MY FOOT!” Gun Salutes now are so incoherent for him, reparations cannot be compromised by professionalism. How will they know the solidarity at campaign night fires, the fun they had at simulations, the heartfelt camaraderie cannot be gratified and ingeminated?

Alcohol is now his ally, and he is desperately searching for a moment to purge his emotions for the price of one drink. His psychedelic emotions help him to abstain from that excruciating subtraction. Intoxication of
