Are you tired of ‘Avatar‘ yet? Well, you might be very soon. James Cameron has just tapped a novelist to write four books based on the film and its three upcoming sequels, just in case four movies weren’t enough for you, the demanding and adoring public who so clearly wanted this.
Cameron hired science-fiction novelist Steven Charles Gould (‘Jumper,’ which became a movie starring Hayden Christensen when studios were still trying to make Hayden Christensen happen) to pen four ‘Avatar’ books to coincide with ‘Avatar 2,’ 3 and 4. The novels will be based upon the films, while also expanding on the world and giving even more details about how blue aliens connect their hair and do magic.
The director is still hard at work writing ‘Avatar 2′ and the other sequels with help from Josh Friedman (‘War of the Worlds’), Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver (‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes‘), and Shane Salerno (‘Savages,’ ‘Salinger’). The films will begin production next year, and all three sequels will be filmed back to back and released every December, starting in 2016 — seven years after the first ‘Avatar’ film, at which point Cameron is hoping ‘Fern Gully’ nostalgia will be at peak mining levels.

The Cuckoo's Calling is a detective crime thriller novel written by Harry Potter fame author J.K. Rowling under the pseudonym of Robert Galbraith. The thriller novel hovers around the character of Detective Cormoran Strike, an ex-military man. The novel pivots around the murder mystery of a popular top notch supermodel. The book opens with the death of supermodel Lula Landry by falling off a snow covered MayFair balcony. It is considered as a suicide by all but her brother has his doubts and appoints a detective called Cormoran Strike to investigate on the case. Will Lula's brother's doubts turn into reality? Will Cormoran come out of his mental tribulations and financial crunch? Will he be able to resolve the murder mystery of Lula? Read on to know this exceptional writing of Rowling.
Unlike Harry Potter series, The Cuckoo's Calling is about the mundane existence of an Ex- Military Officer who has lost his leg due a land mine while he in Afghanistan during war. The novel talks about midlife crisis, class envy, social anthropology of the contemporary London and is nowhere close to the fantasy magic world of Harry Potter. This gives the book a refreshing appeal and makes it a must read for all the Rowling fans as well not-so-much of Rowling fans too.
The Controversy:
Released in April 2013 'The Cuckoo's Calling’ has driven into the sea of controversies and doubts off late mainly over the authors name. It was believed that J.K.Rowling is the author of the crime thriller novel, who is also the author of fame novel The Harry Potter series. In recent past it was revealed by The Sunday Times that author Robert Galbraith of The Cuckoo’s Calling is the pen name of J. K. Rowling.
The novel and the other work of the author were reviewed from four different vantage points with the help of a software programme that was made by a British linguistics expert & Pittsburgh's Duquesne University Professor named Patrick Juola, which revealed that Rowling is the author. On this occasion of revelation Rowling commented that “Being Robert Galbraith has been such a liberating experience. It has been wonderful to publish without hype and expectation and pure pleasure to get feedback under a different name."
The book's Jacket cover mentions the writer Robert Galbraith as an Ex- Royal Military Police who was associated with the Special Investigation Branch (SIB). He later left the military in 2003 and started working in a civilian security industry. According to the cover, the central character Detective Cormoran Strike's character is drawn from the fellow military men that Galbraith worked with during the Afghanistan war. This description is much in the line with Lee Child's Jack Reacher. However, by now we all know this was just a fake author background that Rowling created to hide her identity as the author.
The much controversial book, The Cuckoo's Calling is now on preoder at infibeam.com, a leading and most preferred online book shopping destination of millions of book readers across globe. Infibeam.com houses thousands of books on myriad of genres.

Ahmedabad, India; June 05, 2013: Parinda Joshi is coming up with her new novel 'Powerplay-the Game is On this month. The plot of the novel revolves around the life of Keya Singhal, who is an introverted, idealistic employee who carries a no-nonsense attitude.
She is the protagonist of the story and the novel is all about how things soon change in her life and she finds herself in troubled waters by the aggression of Vivek Grewal. Vivek Grewal is a shark at a consulting firm and his mission is to orchestrate an acquisition that nobody could foresee. He smells blood and circles in for the kill- a faltering IGL team.
Adding to this plot is an unlikely combo of two powerhouses- a billionaire investor and an IGL team's captain. The story is a great cocktail of raw ambition, unwavering ideals, vengeful betrayal, consuming love and notorious scandals.
After her first novel, 'Live From London' which happened to be a Chick Lit., the author has now moved on to a bit matured genre in her upcoming novel 'Powerplay – The Game is On. Parinda Joshi describes about her own second novel as a 'grown up' in an interview with Dr Roopleen. She also adds that, “My first was a light read geared towards young women. The new one has an exciting premise and a very topical subject. I think a large number of readers across age groups and genres will be able to relate to it. It's a bit more grown up than my first. I know I'm stealing J. K. Rowling's thunder when I use the phrase 'grown up' but it really is true!"
This refreshing novel by Parinda Joshi is surely a catch as it gives glimpses into the world of Sports- Cricket in specific and what really happens once the match is over and the stadium lights are off. Babita Basu, Editor of The Times of India says the following about this book, “PowerPlay gets you hooked right from the first line - it's that fast-paced. English pulp fiction scales the heights of subtlety in Ms.Joshi's hands" while Gaurav Kalra, CNN-IBN Sports Editor comments that “Powerplay takes you on a journey of intrigue, passion and ambition. Who would have thought the drive to acquire a cricket team can be as riveting – unputdownable"

Like many management professionals who turned writers in the last couple of years, Siddarth Bahri, better known as Sid Bahri, used to be a necktie-clad executive in corporate world and now with his debut novel - The Homing Pigeons - is set to be a promising writer. About his novel, Dr. Shashi Tharoor says, “A remarkable novel by a first-time novelist of immense promises…often exquisitely rendered...exceptional achievement that deserve all the plaudits it is sure to garner.”
Intolerable pain seems always to be at the heart of every love story. After reading pages of The Homing Pigeons, I was tempted to believe that it is autobiographical in nature as the author himself had undergone the troubles and tribulations of 2008 recession. However, Sid never claimed that the piece had an ounce of autobiography. The protagonist Aditya is in similar predicament - a jobless, penniless executive. The story takes readers on a long journey of 3 decades of romance between Aditya and Radhika. First the two characters meet at a bar and their lives took an unexpected turn.
Throughout its 328 pages, this novel will surely grip the readers to the last page. It took 5 long years for writer to finish this story, which surprises its readers with its sharp turns & twists. In his blog, author confesses that the two protagonists were not born at the same time in his mind. While Aditya was born in 2008, Radhika popped up in his mind in 2012.
I wish Sid Bahri all the best for his debut novel and am sure that his decision to leave his plush career was right as he believes that he writes to entertain and influence his readers to become better human beings.
http://www.infibeam.com/Books/
About Sid Bahri:
An hotelier by education, an ex-banker and a senior executive in the outsourcing industry, Sid gave up a plush career in the outsourcing industry to follow his passions. Based out of Ranikhet, he is now a struggling entrepreneur and a happy writer. A self-proclaimed eccentric, he is an avid blogger who loves to read and cook. Cooking stories, however, is his passion. The Homing Pigeons is his debut novel.

As Sweet As Honey begins with the preparation of a wedding ceremony in the small Asian Island called Pi on the Indian coast. Meterling, a 6 feet tall lady is getting married to a short English old man named Archer, who is owner of a gin distillery on Pi Island. Meterling has already been ostracized from the society as she is unusually tall and her marriage with an old English man becomes even more blasphemous. Unfortunately, during the previous day of wedding, the to-be husband of Meterling dies all of a sudden. This leads his sister to think that it was a murder to gain all the wealth of her brother.
Later in the novel, Meterling discovers soon after her to-be husband Archer's death that she is pregnant. Archer's brother marries Meterling to support her and takes her to London along with him. Thus begins the journey of an Eastern woman in the Western world.
The novel brings forth the abyss that can never be bridged between the two cultures of east and west. The first half of the novel is narrated by one of Meterling's younger cousin sister and several other family members. It is only once she goes to London that you get to hear Meterling's voice. The entire story is evolved out of conversations, view points of the various characters in the 'stream of consciousness' style of writing. Therefore, this book is considered to be an East Asian homage to Virginia Woolf's famous novel 'To The Lighthouse' which has been written in the same style.
Get to how Meterling makes it through in the completely contrasting western world. Infibeam, one of the popular sites for buying books online has this classic book on preorder.

Bihar, once considered the poorest state of India has witnessed a stunning development ever since Nitish Kumar first became the CM of the state in 2005. In fact, Bihar with figure of 10.9 percent GDP growth has now over-thrown Gujarat in the pace of growth and development. Bihar Breakthrough: The Turnaround of A Beleaguered State is written by the famous financial expert Rajesh Chakrabarti. The book tells a truthful record of the infrastructure development and the revolutionary changes that occurred in Bihar in the past few years.
As per the Planning Commission of India Bihar was the slowest growing state in the year 2001-05 with GDP of 2.9% but between 2006 to 2010 the GDP swelled up to 10.9% making it the fastest growing state of the country. Hence, shedding its bad tag of being a BIMARU state.
This revolutionary change occurred only under the leadership of Nitish Kumar. As promised by him, he brought in Sushaashan (good governance) for the people of Bihar. It was his efforts that pulled the state out from going into the verge of anarchy and brought about law, peace and order. This book Bihar Breakthrough focuses on these strategies, the policies, and the actions that he took to make Bihar reach where it is now.
In Bihar Breakthrough the Turnaround of a Beleaguered State, Rajesh Chakrabarti looks into the leadership style, governance methods, political management and encouragement of Nitish's government. What Nitish Kumar could achieve for the state is almost a miracle and this book captures the entire process of how he managed to do it and change the state in leaps and bounds. It is a detailed account of the revival of the state governance. It is a must read book for all and especially an inspirational learning lesson for the politicians, governments and organizations in India and abroad.

Dan Brown sets the ball rolling again for his famous fictional character Robert Langdon in his upcoming novel Inferno. In his previous international bestsellers like 'The DaVinci Code', 'Angels & Demons', and 'The Last Symbol' Brown has skillfully fused history, art, symbols, and crypts that Prof. Robert Langdon decodes and unravels the mystery. Yet again in Inferno, Prof. Langdon will revive the same magic of mystery and symbols, only this time it will get much better.
The title of this book was revealed on Facebook and Twitter in a typically Dan Brown style of symbols and crypts. Thousands of Brown's fans filled up a social media photo-mosaic using Facebook and Twitter to reveal the title Inferno to the worldwide audience. A couple of days back the Cover Jacket of the book was released by Doubleday in the U.S.A. When asked about the cover, Mike Windsor, the Art Director for Brown's Inferno told,
"The central image is of Dante Alighieri. Since his work is the catalyst for Langdon's adventure and he is such a monumental figure in literature I felt he had to be on the jacket. Plus, using a historical figure represented in a painting of his time firmly puts the reader in Dan Brown territory. The cityscape of Florence is to give the reader a sense of location… hidden behind the burnt and ripped background, which has become a sort of staple with Dan's jackets. It adds an element of mystery… Like you are discovering something just under the surface. And of course there are the rings in the background and over the image of Dante that represent hell."
So far all we know is that the book is based in Florence, Italy and the tile is borrowed from the classic literature called Divine Comedy by Dante. The first part of this long epic poem by Dante is called Inferno meaning Hell. Brown says that "Although I studied Dante's 'Inferno' as a student, it wasn't until recently, while researching in Florence, that I came to appreciate the enduring influence of Dante's work on the modern world. With this new novel, I am excited to take readers on a journey deep into this mysterious realm...a landscape of codes, symbols, and more than a few secret passageways."
The book is all about how "In the heart of Italy, Harvard professor of symbology, Robert Langdon, is drawn into a harrowing world centered on one of history's most enduring and mysterious literary masterpieces . . . Dante's Inferno."
Infibeam.com, one of the leading online shopping portals is taking preorders for this future's bestselling novel Inferno. Infibeam has a vast collection of books on all subjects for the avid book readers.
