Title: The Gunslinger
Author: Suchita Agarwal
Genre: Fiction
Book Review:
The Gunslinger by Suchita Agarwal comes across as a tale of revenge and redemption on the face of it, but the author has so skillfully weaved threads of emotion, betrayal and survival in the folds of its story that it totally makes for an enjoyable reading experience.
From the very beginning you feel hooked onto the enigma of the protagonist and drawn into the scene of action directly.As the chapters flow, the feeling of intrigue only grows, and you cannot help but marvel at the sheer excellence of Suchita's story telling ability. She keeps us riveted with her fast paced narrative, which is unapologetic and packs a punch; very apt to the high-strung action story of this kind.
The action and twists at every turn never offers a drag or a moment of boredom and the reader is transported into the thick of a Texas styled man-hunt tale. We can almost visualize the characters and feel their emotions. Rage, fear, compassion sweeps over us as does the rush of adrenaline as the narrative swiftly takes us to the climactic end.
Suchita has taken efforts to build her characters and has presented them skillfully; I must applaud her notion of naming some of the characters based on their idiosyncrasies, a trait which hits a high mark with the reader. Even the lingo used by some of the characters add a dimension and only helps the story to appear more real in the imagination of the reader.
A very different read from usual novels in the fiction genre, The Gunslinger lives up to the promise of its title: a dark (and sometimes) sinful plot, with vivid descriptions, will flare up your imagination and keep you upright as you read. Kudos to Suchita for penning such a brilliant thriller packed with such a powerful narrative.
Opinion: If you are not reading The Gunslinger, then you are surely missing an experience!
