I have spent 14 years meditating, levitating and constipating. During this time, I happened to cross a tunnel and kept on thinking while crawling my way out that “will there be light at the end of the tunnel?” Indeed there was. 

As I came out and dropped on my knees with my hands raised in air I heard a whisper, “What do you seek?” and the first words which came out of my mouth were “Sarcasm O’ Dear Lord.”

Review :
From the founder of Half Baked Beans comes a premiere guide to satire, sarcasm, mockery in their finest forms. I must admit I read this book purely because of it's title. This book is full of sarcastic quotes which brings smile on readers face. This collection of quotes by author Chetan Soni can lighten your day and enlighten your life. A must Read. Highly recommend !

Backed by a secret society called The Rudras, Kalki, along with Nushen, the Chinese superhuman spy, must do the impossible to save his country, and the world.

But who is Kalki? A flesh-and-blood crusader with a mysterious past? Or the Messiah the world has been waiting for? The future of human survival depends on a single man. Will he become the living God prophesied as the last avatar of Lord Vishnu, or will he fade away as an outlaw?

Review:
Race course road is a fun ride with lots of guessing about what is going to happen next. This thriller is a page Turner although it's not perfect but it's certainly entertaining and was totally gripped. The language of the book is simple and easy to read. Title and cover of the book is apt to the story and compel you to pick it up. Characters are well written. I had a very hard time putting it down but find that it read so easily that I was able to sit and read it for hours at a time. Overall a great read. Highly recommend.
