5.0 out of 5 stars A very enjoyable book. Easy to read, November 27, 1998
This review is from: The Blood Seed (Hardcover)
I found this book in a book fair in Washington DC. I never suspected that this book was going to be one of the best fiction books I have read. Balbeer Rao, through his memoirs, takes us to a grand journey across India meeting all kind of peoples (Holy men, exotic concubines, royal families, the feared Thuggee) and living all kind of adventures.In this book Andrew Ward presents a very vivid image of India on the time of its independence. He describes the land as he describe the people in all their splendor and traditions. Read it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Andrew Ward....where is he?, January 14, 2003
This review is from: The Blood Seed (Hardcover)
I am trying to find more information on the Andrew Ward responsible for writing this beautiful book. Based on the memoirs of a British families' servant, this colorful story brings to you the tale of an Orphaned boy growing up (on the run) in India. You will learn about his childhood, a crazed Christian Reverand (I am Christian, so no hate mail please) who runs a halfway-house/slave camp....and more about his (Balbeer's) life on the run. The back of the book also contains a nice glossary for people like me who have no clue what a "mahout", "bidi", or a "rao" are. If you have to go to work the next day, don't bother starting this book!
