Story-in-Short: 

Millions of galaxies, countless stars, numerous planets and infinite asteroids and comets constitute this universe. Its formation is clueless and so is life. Earth, our dear world, which is one among the trillions of the celestial objects in this universe (we are not sure if we have another / many universes), is the only celestial object that can support life. We? Who are we?

We are just one among the innumerable species that live on Earth. When we compare the species of human beings to the hugeness of the Universe and the multitude of species, we seem very small. Is it not? This does not stop there. There are 7 billion humans in the world. You, I or anyone is just one among the 7 billion humans which is among 1.5 million species on Earth which is one of the trillions of celestial objects in the Universe... (CONTINUE.)

In my View:

 

So, here is my review on The Celestial Hunt, the first e-book that I’ve read. The title of the book is catchy and by reading will try to find more about it. Even the cover of the book is charming and captivates the reader’s attention towards it. Kudos to its designers! 

Talking about the story, it’s basically of an average student Kaushik. One day, while in school, his physics teacher Jaidev tells him and his classmates about Sangford’s book named ‘Providential Psyches.’ 

Kaushik then searches for that book and he gets it from his fathers library. The next day as Jaidev and Kaushik were travelling a sudden blast at a religious meet scatters off everything. Kaushik has to be admitted to a hospital. This incident makes Kaushik scrutinize on certain facts. In the next slot, Kaushik gets to know about Jaivdev being Orphan. The part describing Jaidev mentions about his friendship with Indrajit and both have common goals. 

What is that goal, How do they achieve it and what role does Sangfords book plays is what you need to explore from the book. The subject of this book is related to a historic event which unfolds before the readers in the later part of the book. The description of the whole historic event is totally amazing. At places, the story has many contemplative messages hidden in it. 

Talking about the book - it has been authored in a fascinating manner. The names of persons, locations, etc. are good and beguiling. The initial part of the story is much more interesting than the later part. In the initial part, the story moves smoothly where as in the later part, attention of a reader is often dragged to another one all of a sudden. It creates a little bit of distraction. 

Barring that, the story stands strong. It’s an interesting work of fiction done by this debutant author. I would surely ask my readers to purchase it and enjoy this cosmic tale.  

I would rate this story by 3.65/ 5!
