Description

A suspenseful yet heartwarming story, The Buggles is a subtle lesson on the interdependence of our lives. The landscape is imaginative, the characters endearing and the lively gusty voice of Anjali resounds off each page.

Imagine a man whirling out of a Delhi dust-storm, onto the palm of your hand. A man who wants to fell you with a blow of karate. A man the size of your pinky.

That's what happens to Anjali on a hot summer afternoon when the Buggles visit her and introduce her to their exiled life in the skyless, underground land of Nozrabu, where time sleeps and giant monstrous Boils stomp around, eating anything in their way. Soon Anjali is whisked off to see Nozrabu for herself, excited to be on the great adventure she's always dreamt of. But things begin to go terribly wrong when Nobu saves her life and in the process falls prey to the Boils himself…

A suspenseful yet heartwarming story, 'The Buggles' is a subtle lesson on the interdependence of our lives. The landscape is imaginative, the characters endearing and the lively, gutsy voice of Anjali resounds off each page.
