Son of Prophecy

“A coming-of-age novel, Son of Prophecy takes us on a visceral journey with its young protagonist as he navigates love, loss and adversity while trying to unravel the significance of a century-old prophecy that reveals him as the “Chosen One’. Ratna Chandra’ evocative work seamlessly blends high fantasy with contemporary concerns to produce a sprawling and intricate tapestry that draws the reader into the turbulent life of its young hero all while providing a hard-hitting commentary on the petty prejudices and discriminatory policies that tear asunder vulnerable communities. Weaving together a motley group of characters, each exquisitely complex and pulsating with life, Chandra creates a world that is at once fascinatingly foreign yet uncannily familiar. In empathetically sketching the trials and tribulations encountered by Devin, as he sets out to save his community from an inscrutable force of darkness, Chandra leaves us with a devastating understanding of the terrible cost that the ideological battle between good and evil imposes on those that choose the path of virtue. An achingly brilliant novel, Son of Prophecy will shatter you before healing you anew.” Dr. Priyanka Dey, Author and Book Reviewer
