MAGIC HAS NO BORDERS

Anil Margsahayam and Reena Dutt bring considerable energy to this unique short story collection. Gathering together narratives of South Asian writers from across the diaspora, this is a title for all ages. Dutt has a soft, sensitive approach to conveying the stories based on legends. Margsahayam uses more dramatic flair for the stories written in an epic style. Together, the narrators create a richly diverse listening experience that mirrors the wide range of characters. From the age-old battle between good and evil to heroines wrestling with the call of destiny, each story has its own flair. As the works mix genres ranging from science fiction to fantasy, the narrators are up to the challenge. Listeners can begin chronologically or dip in and out of the stories based on their titles.
