Short
Summary of the book:
In this book, we meet a brilliant young
scientist by the name of Jehan Fasih. Jehan detests violence and has tried to
create a drug which will remove the violent streak in humanity. However, the
drug has side-effects and is far from perfected when the government wants to
force him to put it to use on alleged terrorists. What follows is a story of
intrigue, suspense and betrayal. Jehan is forced to take matters in his own
hands and in doing so betray his mentor. Can he succeed and avoid bloodshed,
misuse of powers and tyranny?
This book is also a story about love, loyalty
and the goodness in people.
What
I liked about the book:
This was a fabulous book which made it
difficult to put it down. The start appeared boring. Boy, was I mistaken,
within the first few pages suspense and intrigue picked up and I was no longer
able to put it down. There went my Saturday morning, I only got out of bed
around one pm, having finished the book.
What
I didn’t like about the book:
I
absolutely loved the book.
My
favourite bits in the book:
I loved how Jehan was able to manipulate those
who were used to manipulating others and come out on top.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
There were no bits I disliked.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
As far as I am aware this book stands on its
own. However, the author has also written another book, ‘A flight of broken
wings’, which was another one I really enjoyed reading.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
It is difficult to compare this book to any
others. The book contains bits of the best in a lot of other books and I can
certainly recommend it.

summary, I would recommend this book for the following readers:

Description by Author:
When nations are on the brink of war, to be innocent is not
enough...
Fifteen years ago, Jehan Fasih designed a drug that could
curb the instinct for violence (and rob the taker of their free will). Fifteen
minutes ago, someone blew up the metro station to get their hands on his
brainchild.
Jehan must make a decision, and time is running out.
Abhijat Shian and his sister, Rito, lost their jobs, and
their family's reputation, over the course of a single week.
The reason? Their father's trusted protégé, Jehan Fasih,
betrayed him and embroiled their family in one of the biggest corruption
scandals the country has ever known.
The Shian siblings' quest for revenge soon turns into a
murky web of confusing motives and divided loyalties.
Is Fasih a genius or a madman? Is their father truly
innocent or is there a trail of deceit and betrayal within the hallways of
their childhood home?
The Brightest Fell is a gripping tale of loyalty, treason,
corruption, patriotism, and political intrigue.
