Doomsday of Tamas: Race to the Second Apocalypse (Time Travelers Book 3)

To be honest this tri-series was pleasantly fast and a page turner for sure. It takes a huge jump of imagination but keeps the stories bound and interesting.

Packed with all the masalas of alien attack, time travel and much more. Some concepts from previous book return back but not that you need to have read all the previous books to enjoy this one!

The third book in the series of Time Traveller's. This begins with the abduction of a single mother from a crowded market by three drones.In the different parts of the world people were getting killed.Tej the protagonist of the story is no where to be found and on Earth an A.I is creating a hell lot of problems for security, defence and in the lives of people.After a big incident Tej is back on Earth and now has another challenge to save the Earth from an A.I and an asteroid which is about to collide with Earth and wipe out everything.This is another sci-fi rollercoaster story with lots of actions, scientific knowledge and amazing plot twists.There were a lot of incidents which were surprising(in a good way).It felt really good when you lose all hopes and then there comes a surprising bomb that shook you and you get back in the story once again.

It's the last book in the time traveller series. I have enjoyed the previous two books and this one too is at par. A few new characters were brought forward this time, which made the story interesting; on one hand, nobody can find Tej and on the other hand, an AI is on its way to destroy the world. After a while, Tej comes backs to earth and this time he has become more powerful and knows how to control his powers efficiently. The characters are well built, and I loved how Tej's character has grown until now. The story building is too good as it keeps you hooked and you wouldn't want to put it down until you reach the end.The time-travelling experience is quite amazing and looks seamless. Generally, I don't read mythology but in it, there is a perfect blend of sci-fi and mythology which makes it more fascinating. This book can be read in one go, and people who love sci-fi and want to explore something new and exciting should go for it.

Rating: 4.58/5.00From the very first page, the world seemed so vivid in my imagination. I love it when authors can paint the world with only a handful of sentences.The protagonist is well established in the story. What she likes and dislikes, her intimate details make her a wholesome character in the story. She takes her time to place in the story, which makes her more valuable, more likeable as a character. I wish other authors would understand this, too. Taking time to build up is very important.I’ve read many books by Varun and by far, this has got to be my favourite one. I missed the part that came before this instalment so I was a little confused but I still found it enjoyable. Of course, I’m going to pick up Devourers From Suryaksh and come back to this one again.The world is so well constructed, it’s hard to blow past any detail. The Time Travelers series is taking a whole other turn and bringing so much to the Sci-Fi genre. Loved this book so much!Thanks Varun for my Advance Copy! I just can’t get enough of your books.

Tej, his daughter Pri and his friend Rig are tasked with stopping an asteroid on a collision course with the earth. As the asteroid races towards the earth, an evil entity starts quashing any attempts to prevent the Armageddon. Astronomers are killed and rocket-scientists are blown apart around the globe. The trio are up against an enemy who's a master of stealth and tech-warfare. As they travel back and forth in time to prevent the imminent doomsday, they realize a second apocalypse is waiting to happen.There are 3 USPs of the time traveller’s series- the amalgamation of science with ancient culture, the simplicity of the written word and the villains- each more brutal and ingenuous than the other. This is one such series where readers can’t help but be impressed with the villians. In comparision with the previous books, the third book is miles ahead in terms of action and creativity but not so much as a story. This is a book that focuses on the incidents rather than characters. It’s loaded with scientific concepts and analogies mixed with ancient rituals and weapons. If one stops to question the how of the workings of the story, the book becomes a strain on the mind but when one goes with the flow, it is mind blowing. Reading Doomsday of Tamas requires a huge amount of concentration to keep up with the constant time travel incidents. The narration is simple which is the best part. It takes sheer talent to ensure the vivid descriptions and the most complicated of topics are put forth using very few words.Doomsday of Tamas can’t be read without reading the other books of the series. Though it appears like a standalone novel, it isn’t. Owing to the simplicity of narration the books can be read by young adults as well as adults. Time and again the dark side of technology has been explored in literature, yet the developments continue unabated. This book will surely give you the chills. And for the sake of repetition, let me say this- the combination of ancient wisdom, weaponry, and rituals with scientific explanation is the best part of the book. Being an Indian, I feel proud reading it.

A great conclusion to the Time Crawlers. I have been following this series before it was a series. A good old short stories. For a continuity lover like me I was very happy to see elements and characters from this early work resurface here as well as the developments from the previous books.Varun has a great gift for blending science fiction and mythology. The science and paranormal. I also enjoyed that this was highlighted in this book.I was glad to see Taj either dispite or because of his origin set himself up as humanities greatest hero saving the world a number of times. Now he is needed again, but in the last book he was forced to make the final sacrifice. Can is time displaced daughter bring him back? I really like that both father and daughter have enhanced abilities beyond the normal Time Crawlers.Though this us the last book in thus trilogy I think thing there is a lot more to explore for all these characters. I like to see what they could get up to I their present, ancient past or far future.

Tej is missing and his daughter is seeking him in time jump functions. After defeating Nife in the previous book, Tej disappears leaving his friend Rigasur behind. Rigasur, himself an ancient demon, makes a vow to discover what happened to Tej and why he cannot find a trace. Pri, daughter of Tej, born long ago before her father learned of his time jumping abilities, wants to meet him and once again be a family. At the time of Pri being left with gifted mentors to discover her own talents, Pri also enters the world time where she becomes an member of specially enhanced soldiers to handle unusual events with their special abilities. All Pri needs is a safe place to lie down undisturbed, leaves her time and body, and enters another time to accomplish the goal she has been given. Venkat, her leader has used her and Nancy, another enhanced soldier with powerful muscular abilities to work in similar situations where average humans could not succeed. The world has been invaded by a complex villain, Tamas, an AI with massive destructive abilities intent on removing life from the planet. Fighting Tamas will be difficult since his intelligence is spread among millions of pieces of binary codes in multiple places but not in one central area. This is the problem Man must face. Rigasur joins Pri in searching for her father and finding if he is still present somewhere in time, did he evolve again after he disappeared, can he help them defeat Tamas. The idea of a vastly expansive network intelligence hidden without being corrupted by outside attack is a scary one. Tamas is determined to be God. The final solution is very limited by time which must be held in place long enough to defeat Tamas. Very good addition to the series with subtle warnings of using artificial intelligence and becoming sentient. Reader must read the series in order to understand the development of Tej, Rigasur, and Pri, their individual guidance under powerful teachers to open their abilities and sense of morality. The idea of time jumping must be carefully calculated to avoid complications in the future yet give access to the needed time frame. This was a free book to read and review. I enjoyed the use of Indian mythology, teaching and setting to flavor the story. The author has captured quite and intellectual example of the future and present scientific playground. Very good read.
