Dakini: The Himalayan Quartet is a compilation of four sequels by author Deepak Shumsher Rana. The author with his fast-paced engulfing narration blends his love for adventure and wildlife with magical realism. Dakini has a huge canvas - the fictional plot that begins with life during the Rana regime,with time entering unknown territories, not only in terms of location but also going deep into the human psyche, along with mysticism and philosophy. With his lucid language and vivid storytelling Rana is bound to make a major comeback in contemporary literature. An interesting experiment marrying quasi-Historical with fantasy writing and dancing between different areas.John Whelpton.
