Gripping!

A gripping read - fast and tightly paced...I finished it in one sitting but then I am a very fast reader!! Characters are well etched and speak to the reader so that you want to find out what happened to them...a page-turner in more ways than one! Also a surprising part is the delightfully quirky tale within a tale which this reader thoroughly enjoyed and was left wishing that there was more of that tale...

Good Read

I finished reading the book in two days much like most good thrillers from international authors. I liked the plot, the way he built up characters and the fast pace at which the story moves. The ending was a bit too abrupt (negative) but with a unexpected twist (positive). The writing style is casual, easy to read (positive) but the editing could have been way better (negative)...all in all a good first book from the author

Nail biting read!

Gotta say I found Taking the Taj like a roller coaster ride that never stops. From the first page to the last it kept me glued to the 'screen' (ya it's a bit like watching a movie) and I read it late into the night. I've read a lot of the author's humour columns and was quite surprised at his thriller turn. Well done dude!

Not everybody with a pen is a writer

No thrill.. no gripping.. so much of open ending .. i kept searching for the ends.
the suspense started at the beginning just wades off. The book looked more like a typical commercial Hindi film, hero-villain types just some songs missing :-)

Too much digging into story of each character

Not as thrilling as it claims. Quite disappointed the way the story moves ahead.. a lot of time spent on establishing the character (which goes almost till the climax) and then curtains down in an abrupt and unconvincing way.

Coming to the delivery, flipkart made the delivery as soon as it released (i have pre-booked).
