Publisher's Summary
A seemingly random selection of heads of state are struck down like flies by unnamed killers who work with the clinical efficiency of butchers. Except that they leave no trace of their methods.
Welcome back to the shadowy and addictive world of Ashwin Sanghi. After The Rozabal Line, Chanakya’s Chant, The Krishna Key and The Sialkot Saga, Ashwin Sanghi returns at last with another quietly fearsome tale - this time of men who guard the ‘Kalachakra’, or The Wheel of Time. Sanghi describes a world of people at war with one another - a boomeranging conflict of faiths that results in acts of such slow and planned human cruelty that they defy human imagination.
Caught in the midst of this madness is Vijay Sundaram, a geek scientist who is only dimly aware that the wider sky outside his laboratory is stretched taut and close to being torn apart by forces that he wants simply to have nothing to do with. But events conspire to propel Vijay into the labyrinth of Milesian Labs, a centre of research deep in the forested hills of Uttarakhand. What he stumbles upon is a primordial clue to a galactic secret that could accelerate the downward spiral of humankind. Trapped and wholly unaware of his actual foe, Vijay races against time to save humanity - and himself.
Zigzagging from Rama’s crossing to Lanka to the birth of Buddhism; from the origin of Wahhabism to the Einsteinian gravitational wave-detectors of LIGO; from the charnel-grounds of naked tantric practitioners to the bespoke suits of the Oval Office; and from the rites of Minerva, shrouded in frankincense, to the smoke-darkened ruins of Nalanda, Keepers of the Kalachakra is a journey that will have you gasping for breath - but one that you cannot abandon till all the pieces of the jigsaw come together.
Till you come up gobsmack against an end that you simply did not see coming.

Outstanding
The book is very informative about all the knowledge stored in the various religious scriptures and is very beautifully narrated as well. Definitely a 'Can't put down' book.

Boring
The author goes on and on elaborating tons of 'facts' which have no bearing on the story whatsoever.
The narrator feels like a software is reading the book.

Facts and fiction fused well
This is my second book from Ashwin Sanghi! He has done a fabulous job in weaving facts and fiction together pretty well! A fictional work that very well reinforces the fact that Science and Religion should go hand in hand for overall good! I loved the conclusion, especially! Patel has done good justice in the narration as well! Overall a perfect presentation!

Superb Concept. Nicely narrated.
The book takes you deep into the ocean of ancient knowledge, understanding of religious beliefs, and the richness of our Vedas.
Ashwin knows how to impart knowledge through storytelling.
Narration by Shernaz Patel is awesome. Soothing, confident voice with requisite voice modulation, made the story even more interesting. A must read for mystery and wisdom lovers.

Too much to consume
this is my first Ashwini Sanghi book and I must say that I am flooded by huge information. Athour tried to capture world ancient history and it is too much to consume! otherwise the trivial information is really good to know and mixed with thriller gives it a good read.

Perfect combo of science and mythology!
My first review of a book and I'll try to keep it simple. The book had me hooked from the get go. I've read most of Ashwin Sanghi's books, and this, in my opinion, is his best work yet.
There is quite a bit of science, physics, tied in with Hindu and Buddhist mythology and philosophy. There were numerous mind blowing moments, thoughts and twists in the book and it only gets better as you progress.
I couldn't put a finger on any particular flaw with the book apart from the fact that the protagonist isn't exactly a strong character and he's not someone you'd root for along the way.
That aside this is a wonderful book and the narration was really good as well!

Not absolute, but relative torture to listen to.
this book was terrible which just seemed to be a dialog about assumptions the writer was trying to convey about everything which left no room for the reader to use their own imagination. The book really had no story to it.
