Equilibrium: The Avaasya Trilogy (Book 1)

About the Book

An ancient prophecy, The largest metropolis in the world . . . A petite small-time robber . . . Meet Arya, a 17-year-old with the uncanny ability to open almost every locking mechanism ever known to mankind. Paid to break into a high-profile government vault, he unknowingly sets in motion events of apocalyptic consequences—The Tamisra is rising; mercenaries and shadow spirits have joined hands with humans to destroy the Equilibrium; and rumors abound of a Maayukh that links the ring, known as Avaasya, to the fate of the world. Racing against time to undo what he has done, Arya finds that time is his biggest enemy and that he can trust no one in this race to return balance to the world.

About the Author
Paras Joshi, also called ‘Paolini of the east’ by his friends, has just turned twenty-one. Soft-spoken but intense and always immersed in his writing, he is an avid blogger. At present a third year student at University School of Law and Legal Studies, Paras has over the years found himself beginning and abandoning many ambitious projects, never quite being able to break the fifteen-page psychological barrier. The idea of Equilibrium began as a daydream, and as a result of invigorating discussions he had with his mother on Lord Krishna’s sermon to Arjun in the Bhagvad Gita. Since then, after more than a year and a half of writing and a real roller coaster ride, the first book of the trilogy is complete and ready, while the second book is nearing completion.
