Today, I’ll be sharing with y’all one of my personal favorite series, the conch bearer.
Mythical, mystical — and impossible to put down, The Conch Bearer is literary fiction of the highest order. Action, adventure and magic are all components of this fantastic novel/series.
The main character, Anand, is an unlucky boy from an impoverished household. One day, a beggar, Abhaydatta, offers him a chance at adventure. Help protect a magical conch shell, he offers Anand, and return it to its home in the Himalayas. Nisha, an impetuous, young street girl, joins them, and this unlikely trio sets off on a life-changing journey.
I would give this book 5/5 rating just because I couldn’t stop reading it till late. A real page turner! Recommend it to age 9+. There’s a series, the Conch bearer followed by ‘The Mirror of Fire and Dreaming’ and then ‘Shadowland’. Both are equally good!
