The Magicians Of Mazda: Bharat Collection 7
About this ebook
Centuries later, Parsi scientist Jim Dastoor is abducted from his Seattle laboratory and whisked away to Tehran. The Ayatollah believes Jim is the key to uncovering the ancient relic known as the Athravan Star, and his men will do anything to possess it, even murder.
From the ancient ruins of Persepolis to the Taliban camps of Afghanistan, from the womb of an Udvada fire temple to the icy mountains of Kashmir, from the dreadful coffin cells of Tehran to the deathly calm of Diu's Tower of Silence, Jim and his historian wife, Linda, are sucked into a terrifying chase across vividly changing landscapes.
In this gripping and provocative novel-a dazzling addition to the Bharat Collection-master storyteller Ashwin Sanghi takes his readers through a complex maze of myths and legends that thrill and surprise at every turn.
