It was an exciting moment last Friday to receive two signed copies of the book The Ducktrinors written by Papatia Feauxzar. I started reading it right away during the weekend and I must say after a long time I came across a book that had kept me intrigued since the first page.
The story’s main character is Hanifa who is a 19 year old girl and has just being relocated to Brazil. The story is based way ahead in the future when talking about God and the Last Day is considered a crime. A huge army of senators is ruling the people and they believe that the world will never end thus anyone heard talking about the Judgement Day or preaching people about God will be put behind bars. Hanifa’s family is secretly worshipping Allah and has forbidden their children to not mention anything about the Last Day which has already gotten them in trouble before when Hanifa spoke about it in public. Despite all that Hanifa is adamant to fulfill a greater purpose in her life and she wishes to create an army which can be strong enough to beat the senators. Finally putting her plan to action she becomes an undercover by joining the senators and starts making a team of her own to fight the senators while also hiding her whole plan from her family.
The story began well and as I have mentioned before that I was intrigued from the first page itself. But somewhere in between there were times when I felt the story got too fast as it skipped some parts which should have been there. But even then I really enjoyed the book and I can’t wait for its next part.
