Great Review for The Silver Anklet in Resource Links

Just got a great review in Resource Links (Dec 2009, Vol 15, Issue 2) from Myra Junyk!

Here are a few snippets;

"This beautifully written and lyrical book brings various figures in Indian mythology to life in a compelling story about family, love, courage and determination. Tara is a wonderful heroine exemplifying the strength of the human spirit to overcome adversity.

Mahtab Narsimhan has once again invited readers into a world where evil spirits wander the dense forest and young children must face life and death decisions in order to survive. Doing the "right thing" can sometimes be the most difficult choice.

What strange and wonderful experiences can readers anticipate in the third and final installment of the Tara Trilogy."

Triple Book Launch: Jan 16, 2010

What a way to start the New Year!

Deborah Kerbel, Marina Cohen and I launched our books at the Chapters, Yorkdale Mall on Jan 16, 2010. The weather was gorgeous and mild, the turnout was fantastic but the best part was seeing gigantic cakes featuring our book covers; Girl on the Other Side, Ghost Ride and The Silver Anklet.

I'll post a couple of pictures here but for more coverage, please visit me on Facebook.

Thank you to all my family, friends and fans who turned up to celebrate these birthdays with us!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Dear Friends, Fans et al,

As 2009 draws to a close I always feel nostalgic and sad. So rather than give in to reminiscing about the past, I'm going to look forward to the new year and everything it brings.

I wish all of you peace, prosperity and the fulfilment of your dreams in 2010.

Happy New Year!
