Agnidal 4, the fourth annual edition of Agnishatdal contains the works and interviews of its authors. I will talk about the works only because I took most of the interviews.


Lyapunov’s children by Troy David Loy- Great piece, a scary warning in my opinion regarding what human beings will do if they become really powerful, powerful enough to play with planets and stars!


Vikram and Vetal by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy- I have read 25 stories of a book named Vetal Panchvingshati as a child, and then I have watched the TV show, don’t remember this one, I so enjoy Raghu’s stories, his choice and storytelling is awesome!


Middle of nowhere, now here by Dom Collucci- Beautiful and peaceful!


Friendx by Brieuc Martin Onraet- It is a fantastic story excluding the apocalyptic part, but in today’s environment it sounds ominously real! Brieuc is an awesome storyteller without a doubt! Loved the ending of this story the most! It’s a beautiful tribute to his son in law.


The drover by Pat Ritter- Pat is a marvelous storyteller. He makes the Australian outback come alive through his stories. They are fascinating reads! This one shares the story of a young drover and his rise.


Political Propaganda by Saptarchi- Good piece, and we all are tired of these cunning games!


Religion by Bitter Pill- An interesting take on religion, quite balanced, part of a series published in the ezine.


Prophets of God by Brendan- A painful story about human beings and their cruelty, how they first abuse prophets and then worship them when they are dead!


Horror and Hope by Citizen Null- the effects of Trump’s reign is really horrible for common US citizens, it is tragic and sad!


Khola Akash by Labanya- a fantastic piece of poetry in Bengali.

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique by Troy David Loy

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique: Agnishatdal Poush 1426, December 2019 https://gumroad.com/l/umPGr https://shoptly.com/i/mon by Troy David Loy https://www.amazon.com/author/troyloy iravu vanakkam. naandaan Troy. Welcome to the Poush 1426 review of Agnishatdal! Here are a few of the outstanding features for this issue… First there’s… … Let us Begin… Our Virtual Trip to India This painting shows a young woman leaning, her back to a tree, while a small fishing boat travels past on the river in the background. Bharatendu Harishchandra So, here is one whose linguistic influence was deep and far-reaching. I must look for any published works of his that remain in print, and I suspect that these are more than a few sources I can look on. Rupjibi and Kalambiji Saptarchi criticizes the intellectual failures of modern Indian movies made for money, not the writer’s craft. Masai 1 of 4 Brieuc begins this series on the Masai people

Shubho Jagaddhatripuja!

A piece from The Soul Devourers Now available in shoptly as Agnimalya Book 9 https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu   "The names that our parents gave us were Agni (Fire) and Vari (water), yours was Agni, mine Vari, based on our natures, of course; I don’t think you would mind if I call you Agni." Her sister asked.   She shrugged.   "Who are these people?" she asked.   "These people were once human beings. Their greed was too strong, so strong it tempted them into selling their soul to the devil. There is a temple in Gajmahal, where they worship the devil, and have been for centuries. These soul devourers –– yes, that’s what they are called because that’s what they become capable of devouring souls–– souls of their victims are their life-force. That keeps them alive, as some of them are centuries old. Their head priest was one of the first priests of the temple, and has done it for centuries now."   "These p
