Naga: A Legend of Tasik Chini

Rate this book
NAGA spans three realms from the ancient world – Middle Kingdom during the Tang Dynasty, Nagara and Bhumi Semenanjung Melayu. It is the story of three adventurers, Sri Gemom, Srikandi and Kemboja and how fate set their worlds on a collision course that shook the very foundations of an ancient civilisation. More than that, against the background of sorcery and magic, the tragic tale of survival and loyalty shines through.

I enjoyed reading the story pieced together from different characters' viewpoints and the detailed description of the culture and natural surroundings. I really appreciate the background info provided at the end of the book. It intrigued me to look up the manuscripts mentioned. I found some available online and I hope to work on my Malay to be able to read them one day.

At first glance I was worried I'd get lost with the names of the characters. But as I read it, it wasn't a problem at all.

Thank you ninotaziz for providing a kindle version. I hope you will consider kindle versions for your other titles as well.
