The Sword of Kalki
When the forces of evil became too powerful, Lord Vishnu took an avatar in the form of Lord Ram to eradicate the evil. Lord Ram fought the forces of evil and ushered the world into a peaceful future. You have already heard this story, right? Rey had too.Rey, a rather unassuming teen had always thought that the stories his parents told him, of the beautiful devas fighting the beastly asuras were only myths and were actually a way of imparting knowledge and lessons to the masses. But his world of science and logic turns upside down when he finds out that the asuras and devas are as real as the earth being round-ish and that one of the devas might be his ancestor! Now, he finds himself thrust into the world of Devas and Asuras with the strength of neither. He must fight a battle he doesn't want to fight, to save the fate of the world we know and the worlds we don't. On this journey to find his true self, he uncovers dark secrets and darker truths. Will he be able to save the world or will he lose himself?

Old Testament Legends
Montague Rhodes James OM FBA (1 August 1862 - 12 June 1936) was an English author, medievalist scholar and provost of King's College, Cambridge (1905-1918), and of Eton College (1918-1936). He was Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge (1913-15).Though James's work as a medievalist and scholar is still highly regarded, he is best remembered for his ghost stories, which some regard as among the best in the genre. James redefined the ghost story for the new century by abandoning many of the formal Gothic clich矇s of his predecessors and using more realistic contemporary settings. However, James's protagonists and plots tend to reflect his own antiquarian interests. Accordingly, he is known as the originator of the "antiquarian ghost story". (wikipedia.org)

The Tale of Princess Fatima, Warrior Woman
Published in English for the first time, and the only Arabic epic named for a woman, The Tale of Princess Fatima recounts the thrilling adventures of a legendary medieval warrior universally known throughout the Middle East and long overdue to join world literature's pantheon of female heroes. A Penguin Classic A fearsome, sword-slinging heroine who defeated countless men in stealth attacks on horseback, Dhat al-Himma, or Princess Fatima, was secretly given away at birth because she wasn't male, only to triumph as the most formidable warrior of her time. Known alternately as "she-wolf," "woman of high resolve," and "calamity of the soul," she lives on in this rousing narrative of female empowerment, in which she leads armies of more than seventy thousand men in clashes between rival tribes and between Muslims and Christians; reconciles with her father after taking him prisoner; and fends off her infatuated cousin, who challenges her to a battle for the right to marry her. Though her cousin suffers an ignominious defeat, he impregnates Fatima against her will and, when she gives birth to a Black son, disowns his own son, who also grows up to be a great warrior, eventually avenging his mother's honor. The epic culminates in a showdown between Fatima and another formidable warrior woman, and earns Fatima a place alongside the likes of Circe, Mulan, Wonder Woman, Katniss Everdeen and other powerful women.
The Japanese Psyche
This book examines the haunting, sad, and lively depths of the Japanese soul by interpreting some of major themes in fairy tales. A Japanese Jungian psychologist credited with founding Japanese analytical and clinical psychology and a senior professor at Kyoto University, Hayao Kawai (1928-2007) addresses here such questions as why so many Japanese fairy tales end in a "Happily ever after" marriage, and why the female figure best expresses the culture's ego and the country's possible future. Throughout the book, Kawai delicately presents the multiple layers of the Japanese psyche.The American poet and essayist Gary Snyder, who lived for years in Japan, gaining familiarity with the soul of its culture and thought, introduces Kawai's book to the reader.
