Blurb :

Year 2013! He was educated and was a believer in everything that had a scientifically proven explanation. Sudhir, after constant failures on his part which led to an unwanted divorce, was thrust by a strange twist of faith on an isolated island. He gained unfathomable power, which had no scientific explanation.

He was not a politician, and yet, he was forced to pit his mind against a globally powerful nation, and that nation was guided by a man whose magical powers far exceeded that of his own.

His school curriculum never taught him to fight with a sword, nor travel time.

Yet, here he was, travelling back in time to unravel a mystery that harassed a royal family.

Here he was again, somehow managing to ward off ruthless, bloodthirsty, sword-wielding pirates with his own clumsily held sword!

To protect himself from dying? Obviously, yes!

But, also to protect the fabulous wealth of gold, silver, rubies, diamonds and so much more that were lost in the seven ships around the year 1782.

Review :

Sometime when people keep recommending a book you should listen and read the book. Those Forgotten People is such a book. This was my bedtime book for a while. The plot is mesmerizing and the story telling of the central character Sudhir is unparallel. I don't want to reveal much. The author Aniruddha Roy Choudhury jumps from time period to time period, character to character in a flawless manner. The imagery is astounding. Book was a easy read and yet gave me room to pause as I stopped to think. The cover page and title of the book is apt to the story. Thoroughly enjoyed the journey this book takes you on. A must read book. Highly recommend.
