An extremely brief review of The Archer's Heart

The Archer's Heart by Astrid Amara

On page 160, "Keshan" and "Jandu" use magical voodoo archery to stop a thunderstorm and burn down a forest at the request of a sickly fire-demon.

On page 162, the fire-demon rewards "Jandu" with a magical quiver of everlasting errors.

On page 164, "Keshan" and "Jandu" celebrate their victory by 69-ing each other.

That, right there, is everything that you need to know about this book.

Hmm, sounds like the story of Arjuna, the fire god Agni, and Indra. (I've been reading Wikipedia entries.)

...Magical quiver full of everlasting errors? :)

I've heard of quick story development and progress, but that's... interesting, lol.

Lol! Serious Travesty here!

I don't know if any of you here is Indian or Hindu, but if the hard-liners ever found out about this book, there would be a bounty on the author's head! Shit! Keshan and Jandu! That itself should earn Astrid the undying hatred of the fanatics! Not to mention the 69ing!

In any case, the author should at least have mentioned Mahabharat as the source! As is, few people know the story. In fact, most Indians too are woefully ignorant of the finer details!
