‘The only thing thicker than Mumbai’s traffic is the plot and action in Rohan’s jhakkas debut novel about a semi-immortal chap who gets sucked into a kidnapping scheme. Big, boisterous and absolutely bonkers. Just like the city of Mumbai.’ — Sidin Vadukut, author of The Dork Trilogy

‘Humour, irreverence and action. This book does everything you don’t expect.’ — Anand Neelakantan, author of The Bahubali Trilogy

‘Noir and ancient myth rubbing elbows and told with a reverent purpose—Monteiro has made something special with Curse of the Yaksha.’ — Sam Sykes, author of Seven Blades in Black

‘An amazing adaptation.’ — Koral Dasgupta, author of The Sati Series
