The Hades Factor : When the world got Covert.

A Thriller with all the Bang Bang

This would be the most absurd order you must’ve witnessed. But its not my fault, its just that i saw Cassandra Compact before i read about Hades Factor (mentioned in Cassandra Compact). This book also deals with some deadly disease which if not checked would destroy the human race (wow, how creative) now now, i know you might be saying ” Kya Yaar,Phir woi baat”, my grandpa used to say it all the time, even when i was saying it for the first time. It took me a lot of time to understand that its just his age, until i understood that, we were fighting almost everyday.
Its nice that no one in the Indian Pharmacy world has read this book, coz if they would’ve, most of them would get listed above Bill Gates in terms of money and above Sonia Gandhi for power (Check out this years Forbes List).
I really regret the fact that i am not writing about the new hot dish on the table these days,its ironic that every dog on the block is pretending to have a mouthfull of that and then just barking in every alley , commenting that it had too much meat. DAMN..
All this happens in Hindustan Only. If its still getting tough to guess the recipe, lemme give it you. Take a pan, pour some home made RSS Oil, cut the BJP in small pieces, Grind JINNAH,NEHRU,& Sardar Patel , Fry Them all together and just Sprinkle some of JASWANT SINGH over it and walla, here we are, the very new BJP DO PYAJA.
Its a big godamn book you know, and i am an Engineering Student so, it’ll not take me much time to complete it since i have all the vella time in the world.
So Now, comming back to our Italian Pasta overhere, the book starts with the JANTA vomiting blood in various parts of the world and the eventually getting dead and all in one of the most scariest of ways. Also our Munda in this tale is the same doctor-karate kid guy as mentioned in cassandra compact. But he’s not the saddy saddy this time, you know why, coz he has his girl. And then we have Mr Ludlum’s style of describing the Feminine Species and he does not disappoint us at all. With utter perfection and finesse he makes us marvel his elegance and art. So both the wouldbe’s are doctors in some big time Government thing under the square (square????…ooops the PENTAGON).
So when the government is running out of mortuaries to fill, the big Bhaiyas of the pentagon start getting their pants wet, and thus prepare a special team to help them dry it.
In the mean time our Lovebirds are just having a nice little cosy time in their  hotel room with wine and stuff, just talking i presume. When they are done with their KABADDI thing , the girl has to go, dont get carried away people, they were there for a conference. And our Munda here is just called in the park in night ,no he’s not 2 timing its just that he needs to warned by his SHUBH CHINTAK something like ” Unko pata Chal gaya hain, bhago jaan bachake” kinda shit.
And please put your hands together for…you know who the Ganda Admee, remember that we are in a world where “Ek ki taklif, dusre ka fayda” , want me to translate..no probs it means if somebodies about to get screwed, there’s this someone selling the screwdriver. The question is was he/she about to get screwed just because someone is selling the screwdriver, or their getting screwed coz they’ve already bought it.
The Book is filled with all the answers. The Iraq errand, the bouncing cars, girl friend’s murder, a deadly profit chart,
an ex intelligence officer, a genius ecliptic hacker and our very own Karate kid.
Together they show you, all what you wanna witness and experience.

Sometimes making money doesnot remain same as earning it..

The Cassandra Compact : Emotional Adventure

A medical mystery, tragedy & jeopardy

 

This ones new, unique, interesting and above all from an author whom I didn’t know much, but after reading this, really got addicted to his work. Mr Ludlum, remember our old Neck Breaking, Nice Looking Jason Bourne. The nice little calm kid was a figment of Mr Ludlum’s imagination.

Now, I won’t deny the fact that i bought the book coz it had a nice cover, was looking heavy, and i was getting it cheap.Not many would read an author they haven’t heard of, most would even not know anybody except their usual Family Authors (Read through generations). Don’t take it as a shock,  but many of my old pals who call themselves ‘Reader’ ( In what sense, i am still solving that puzzle) think its only Madam Christie who WRITES, some think of our own small town Kid Mr Bhagat to be the only author with a mischievous touch, some think Arundhati Roy is the only one who writes with a dictionary placed next to her. What we need to know is that the world is way bigger than that,so one should not feel shy about experimenting ( with books & authors) so as to know about the different styles that can be there, and the different styles which were meant to be there….

So now we move on this little story over here, what Mr Ludlum knew and maybe was the first one to realize that involving (or blaming) the agencies like CIA,NSA,MI6 and all, was as common as  having a girl friend (i dont wish to tease all those who are single ) and dared to try something new, The Covert One   another one of those ‘barely there’ organizations , answerable to noone, was funded like anything, and also had smarter suites (Armaani I guess). So the man in the Picture is Mr John Smith,a supposed -to-be-a-doctor kinda guy who was also given martial arts lesson in his medical school, not very much like our medical schools where Martial Arts is DOOR KI BAAT, medical lessons are something uncommon (;)). So he is this fit fat dude, with blue eyes and stuff working for the Covert Organization covertly.

Now unlike many action or rather fiction novels i’ve read so far, this is the first one where the HERO is made to cry ‘ Lost your little girl there ,haaan kid’ . Our guy here is extremely emotional, not the usual DEVDAS LOUNDA,but something like a ZAKHMI SHER ‘Don you mess with me bad boys’.

When i was reading the book, what i discovered that the ‘Hades Tragedy’ was often mentioned, and then i just slapped my head ‘ Damn man, reading the 2nd in the series before the first, Hindustan Zindabad’. But inspite of that, was able to undertstand the whole mess easily, and ‘Hindustan Zindabad’ again.

So our guy is filled with it all anger,hate,depression, so u’ll find all the rona dhona stuff coupled with a unique style of narration. The protagonist in our little story over here is your usual, SRK and Hrithik Mixture.

The story involves the Soviet Union, and the deadly smallpox (it may sound stupid, but it wass deadly) which was stolen,i guess the thief didnt know that ‘Chori karna buri baat hain’. When the story unfolds our guy here has this strong evidence against these BADA BABUS ( aka government employees) at the top and also some money dreaming private big fish (They’re every where man) whose just in a mood to kill a couple of people, inorder to afford his ’2 waqt ka butter chicken’ ,bloody self-centered pig.

Also in the story we have (My Favourite) Peter Howell (No, he’s not a Dog) your usual play-calm and shoot them in the head kinda guys. Who knows everything about the agencies deep dark secrets, and is present almost everywhere.

The tale would dazzle those pure’ Mar Dhad’ lovers and make you say ‘Awww poor kid’ and in the very next page ‘ Atta Boy’ or ‘Go for them tiger’.

So the book is nice a real page turner but dont fool around like me and read ‘The Hades Factor’ first.

‘Tab tak ke liye, Namaskar’ TING!!!1
