AgniBaan: Guardians of the Fire Chamber is the second book by author S. Venkatesh. Like the previous book, this is also fantasy fiction with elements of mythology.
The story is set around two interwoven stories, one from 535 CE and one present-day; the book is set in Egypt, the US, and India. This story is a combination of history and folklore stories.
This story is a blend of ancient time and today's timeline incidents in India and the USA and already mentioned. The story starts in 535 CE in Egypt, where there were two orders. The order applied to run the world. The purpose is the order of the Guardian were Guarding the Secret Kept in the Fire Chamber of Great Pyramid. The second order is the Dark order of Apep, which was demonic, that always try to get their hands in this secret.
Aphotep is the member of the order of the guardian who rushes to India with a package holding secret. The parallel story is the assassination of the US presidential candidate.
The language and the vocabulary used in the story is some of the interesting aspects. The characters are relatable and written with strength. Though somewhere the story was lagging, the immediate incidents patch up the lag. The author's interest in research and putting all those into writing is one of the highlights. An interesting and engaging narration with quests, twists and turns is what makes the book readable.
