Praise

Praise for Age of Vice: 

“Dazzling…For days, I was torn between gorging on Age of Vice or rationing out the chapters to make them last. Finally free from the book’s grip, now all I want to do is get others hooked…. This is a rare case of a book bounding as high as its hype.” – Ron Charles, The Washington Post

“Riveting…Kapoor paints a mesmerizing picture of violence and decadence, of struggle and hope, of corruption and redemption…[I]mpossible to put down.”—BookPage, STARRED review

“Kapoor spins a dizzying ride. Weaving the backstories of Ajay, Neha, and Sunny together, Kapoor’s frenetic and colorful novel highlights the new global pecking order… But as this gripping tale shows, even the weakest deserve one last gasp of dignity.” —Booklist, STARRED review

“Deeply addictive; this spellbinder would be easy to devour in one big gulp, but it’s worth savoring for Neda’s uncompromising take on what she terms India’s ‘losing age, the age of vice.’ The author possesses a talent great enough to match the massive scope of her subject.” —Publishers Weekly, STARRED review

“A complex, gasp-inducing drama that accelerates to an explosive ending. Block out some time: You won’t be able to put this one down.” —GoodHousekeeping

“It doesn’t take long for the reader to become invested in the Mario Puzo–esque drama of the Wadia family and their associates…A whole lot of fun.” —Kirkus
