Puffin Classic: Final Adventures Prof. S

Brilliant stories. another marvel by Satyajit Ray

You just need to know that you can just buy this book with your eyes closed. Though I would appreciate if had Penguin published all the Prof. Shonku stories in one single book like an omnibus (There are actually 3 books containing Professor Shonku stories). But still, reading final exploits of Prof. Shonku is an experience filled with thrill, adventure, Fantasy and chilling excitement. True Indian sci-fi! This science fiction is original in the style and narration and If you haven't red Prof. Shonku, you are missing a whole world!

I LIKED EVERYTHING

The final adventures of Professor ShonkuThis book is a collection of nine short stories and this was a very refreshing read for me. All of the stories were just amazing and I really enjoyed all of them. The stories' names are as follows- Tellus, Professor Rondi's Time Machine, Nefrudet's Tomb, Shonku and the primordial man, Shonku's date with history, Shonku and Frankenstein, Dr. Danielli's Discovery, Prophecies by Don Christobaldi, The Tree with Golden Leaves.One story is about a supercomputer and the other is about the invention of time travel, while in one story Professor Shonku finds the secret to make gold, and in the other, he stumbles upon the rising from the dead formula of Frankenstein. Each story is filled with thrill, a new adventure, and fantasy.This is an Indian science fiction novel written by Satyajit Ray. This book is the last one in three book series and even though I haven't read the other two books, I am very much excited to read them as I loved this book. The narration was beautiful and even though this was a translation of the author's original work it was wonderful. The language used was lucid and can be understood by even a beginner. The book is so captivating that it can be read in one sitting but I decided to read one story a day so that I could enjoy it even more. The way each story started and ended in a perfect manner is commendable.The storytelling skills of the author are truly amazing and can keep you hooked. I so liked the cover of the book. It's simply cute and really nice. At last, I want to say that I would recommend this book to everyone.

Loved each story in this book ...and the marvellous translation which makes it fun to read.Made a cute gift for a little girl!
