When he was a child, Tej saw his mother tortured by the time-demon Kumbh. Though twenty years have passed, Tej still burns with the need to revenge what happened to his mother. He’s desperate to track down Kumbh and make him pay for what he did to Tej’s mother.
When Kumbh escapes from his time prison, Rigu (the sage who rescued Tej’s mother) teams up with Tej to track him down. But in order to do that, Tej must become a time traveler himself, working to stop Kumbh before he destroys all of humanity. With only seven days to stop the end of the world, Tej has to work against the clock to save the world and avenge his mother.
Review: Demons of Time
After connecting with Varun Sayal over his book Time Crawlers last year, he reached out to see if I would like to read and review his latest book. I enjoyed Time Crawlers, so I said yes! This was the perfect quick read to fit between my book club books. Fast paced and action packed, we can see all the skill from the short stories in Time Crawlers expand in this novel length story.
What I really enjoyed about this book was the vast world that Sayal has created. Though the book is short (my biggest complaint), you’ll still be able to become immersed in this world of time travel that Sayal has created. You’ll fall into Tej’s world, holding your breath as he fights to save humanity.
Packed with rounded characters and plenty of twists and turns, this book works well as an introduction to what looks like a new series. If you’re looking for something different and out of the box, definitely check out Varun Sayal!
