The Great Train Robbery!! What a great piece of work to overcome the short sabbatical I had taken from reading. I believe it is one of the finest novels started by crichton. The story no prizes for guessing is of a train robbery organized by a certain guy called Pierce a k a John Simms right from the preparation stage to its execution and a mindblowing climax. Crichton has efectively conveyed the meticulous preparations and there is a lot of realism attached to this audacious act. More importantly, this Pierce guy effectively uses the Victorian society's weaknesses to achieve his ends. All these weaknesses have been elaborately potrayed.
Rating 5/5 Must read
The IPL is the other great thing that is happening in my life other that EPL. Although, I am torn between Sachin and Sehwag, I still have a weak spot for Delhi Daredevils. The start has been fantastic. The CSK vs DD was a match went down to the wire and Delhi eventually emerged victorious. Lets hope the daredevils lift the title this time...
