About the author:

Blurb:

India’s first start-up of superheroes with a mission of saving lives is here to kick ass. Rasiq is riding the highs of life thanks to his successes as an investment banker. But his arrogance soon gets the better of him and he ends up losing everything he holds dear. Managing to salvage only his grit from the wreckage, Rasiq reboots his life and teams up with five uniquely talented superheroes to start a rescue venture DareDreamers. These superheroes Nick: a crazy inventor; Halka: an inhumanly strong man; Arjun: a champion shooter; Natasha: a Bollywood stunt-double; Dr. Vyom, a medical Sherlock Holmes; and, of course, Rasiq: the mastermind combine their unique talents to deliver spectacular rescue operations. Their skyrocketing success, however, comes at a price an enemy hell bent on tearing down their fame and reputation.Will DareDreamers defeat its wily adversary? Or will it become yet another failed start-up?Treachery, action and adventure come alive to make DareDreamers a page-turner.

My verdict: 

'DareDreamers: A start-up of superheroes' is the second book of the father-son duo writers. It is just as good as the first one 'The Quest of Sparrow' , which was a spiritual fiction. This book is basically start up and entrepreneurship book.
The story revolves around 6 characters - Rasiq- an Investment Banker, Nick - a crazy inventor, Halka - a strongman, Arjun - a champion shooter, Natasha - a bollywood stunt double and Dr Vyom - a medical Sherlock Holmes. The lucid language comforts the reading. The characterisation is realistic and the readers can relate every characters to their own people. The author has perfectly blended the elements of love, thriller, mystery and betrayal. A really nice book to read.
