PARADOX
In the year 2020, the world is thrown in disarray with the outbreak of the deadly A-virus. No one has any idea how this pandemic happened; even the WHO is stuck for an effective cure. Just as the whole world is growing desperate for resolution and low in hope, unexpectedly, a grey alien visits the earth in December 2025—five years after the initial outbreak—claiming that it has the concrete cure for A-virus.
Can humans believe the announcement from the grey alien? Who really is this grey alien? Where did it come from? What could the purpose of its visit to Earth be? Did the grey alien bring the first life to our planet? Does it have any influence on ancient architecture and the many great wonders of the Earth? Did Neil Armstrong meet the alien?
If you’re a fan of sci-fi, don’t miss Paradox—an enthralling rendition!

Written in October 2017, the author finds himself to be pleasantly surprised by the way his script turned out to coincide with world events in the year it got published; so will his readers. The sheer amount of co-incidence is baffling.
The story starts with Veronica Miller, a NASA administrator and an alumnus of the Aerospace engineering department, reflecting back on her life and the choices she made. It is through her narrative that we get to know about the A-virus, an age accelerating virus, courtesy of which the world might as well end by the year 2025. People infected with this virus age ten times faster. Veronica is on her way to celebrate her 40th birthday at an orphanage that holds much symbolic and sentimental value to her.
While celebrations are underway at the orphanage, there’s a surprise in store that no one anticipated.
This book has all the hallmarks of a classic science-fiction story: time travel, intra-galactic adventure, first contact with aliens- grey aliens to be specific, automatons, and a titanium plated AI, which captains the mother ship.
As the name suggests, there is a paradox that is central to this story, but giving it away would spoil all the fun. Instead, let’s think about this dilemma: Do we spend resources on searching for a new habitable planet or divert a chunk of it to ensure the safety of Earth, because the former endeavor could take one or a billion light years and by that time, Earth might be way past being habitable any more.
The story is filled with space tech terminologies and it is enjoyable to peruse through them and learn new things at the same time.
The plot does seem to be convoluted at certain instances and need re-reading to get a clearer idea of what is actually happening, giving the brain cells a good workout.
Does the company producing the Red Pill, which has been found to provide symptomatic relief to the patients, hold an answer or does the alien that Veronica encounters?

Veronica Miller is engulfed with the baggage of past (abandoning her baby at 18 and death of colleagues during a failed NASA mission) Corpses shower from the sky at various places creates panic with the ongoing age-acceleration pandemic on Earth 😑
A grey alien has gone rogue and is hell bent on turning all humans as aliens 👾 Meanwhile and assassin is chasing Veronica and in this chase all she desires is to avert this unbelievable paradox and not have any more lost lives on her conscious.
Can this catastrophe be avoided?
This book leaves nothing to the imagination everything from the end of the world, global pandemic, aliens, martians, satellites, habitable planets and I can keep going on & on 👏🏻
Kudos to the Author for such bold thought provoking book....Really enjoyed reading it only set back for me was I got lost at times with some plots it could be simplified 😁

Paradox is fictional piece of work and while reading this I was feeling like this book is kind of a retelling of 2020 . As soon as I read the ‘Preface’ that immediately took in my interest and I definitely had to know more. The language is lucid and the narration is really nice. I am not much of sci-fi person but this didn’t let me get bored while reading.
The story is about outbreak of a contagious virus A- break in various countries, which speeds up the age-acceleration once contracted and even WHO has no cure to it.
It then revolves around a female protagonist who’s a NASA administrative and once witness a corpse falling from the sky, which also takes place across the world at the same time, facing a massive outbreak of the virus.
After various horrifying incidents faced by her for 5 years straight, a grey alien arrives and approaches her saying that he knows the cure to it.
Interesting right?
But you’ll have to read ‘Paradox’ to know What happens ahead and how it ends.
Do dig in to read the very imaginative thoughts by the author.
I liked the title and cover of the book, but the use of many technical terms were a little hard to comprehend.The story is unique and also carries ahead with the seriousness it needs.
Recommended to those who like reading simple and different sci-fi stories.

Paradox is a science fiction. I haven't read much of science fiction books so was excited to see how well it goes. I used to stick to a particular genre, recently I was into mystery and thrillers. So I thought it's high time I opt for something different.
Paradox is an interesting name for the title and I felt intrigued to read the book. The story discusses about a virus that will affect the whole world, A-virus. No one have any idea how to tackle it, what would be the remedy. Even WHO was stuck in the situation, I felt it kind of similar to the pandemic situation we are facing today. All were in search for a solution, an effective cure against the virus. December 2025 an unexpected entry of a grey alien, who is claiming to have a cure for the virus. Can humans trust the alien? What will be his actual motive? What could be the purpose of its visit? Will it be a part of alien invasion?
So many questions were popping into my mind while reading the book. I really enjoyed reading about alien, it is an unexplored area of mine. I recommend this book to all who are looking for something different and interesting. I hope all science fiction lovers will enjoy this book.

Pandemic, quarantine, lockdown. Now add thrill, drama, science fiction, masked man, grey alien to the mix. Sounds interesting, right!
Paradox by Arya Narrayan is exactly such book. This is the book we need current situation. While some of creation adopt an 'infotainment' tone and are aimed at generating awareness about pandemic and related do's and don't. Other side attempt to find the fictional world of science and technology under the deadly A virus, portrayed with a dose of quirky humour.
Idea of grey alien visits the earth in December 2025—five years after the initial outbreak—claiming that it has the concrete cure for A-virus and spicing up it with NASA, sci-fi, tools and forces is genius.
The matured writing and impactful twist and turn clearly depicts it was written by some die hard science lover and the charm had only increase. The complain I have with the book that it lacks emotional quotient but the creativity made up for that and it keeps readers engaging.
All in all, great story, informative, drama, science thrill, amazing characters. Total thumbs up.

First of all thanks to Arya for providing ne with the promotional copy. This book is about 3 people Larry Lazar, Max Lazar and Veronica Miller.
This book is about paradox which means 2 opposite or contradicting things come in the same statement or event. (Can't reveal the paradox or the book will be meaningless.)
Veronica miller from year 2025 who is a Nasa administrator, Larry Lazar and Max Lazar from 2075 father son duo who own star corporation and Max who goes to a unnamed planet near earth from his planet sigma which is the part of moon for his first solo expedition. The turn off events through this expedition.
Also the main character Mr Grey who is a alien and how he tries to go against human and how the revenge turns up is the book.
Really liked the way author thinks making impossible things possible. There are many twist and turns in the book which keep you rooted to the book. Overall i would say its a good Goodreads... 🙂

A really interesting climax, I must say.
I am giving this book 4(3.5 actually) stars because I loved the climax. At first it was hard for me to understand what was going on as there are a lot of things jammed up, Aliens, A-Virus, past of the main character Veronica, Space missions .. but towards the end I found it easy to understand. Good Sci Fi story by Arya Narrayan. Looking forward to read more of his books.

Paradox by Arya Narrayan is a enthralling story for all the sci-fi lovers.
The story is set in the back drop of the A- virus pandemic. It is the year 2020, the world is on a standstill due to the outbreak of the deadly virus which causes accelerated ageing in children and the elderly. The incidents in the plot are actually quite similar to the present COVID-19 crisis.
Veronica Miller, the administrator of NASA is struck between her past emotional baggage and the corpses falling from the sky. It’s upon her to figure out what is the reason behind all this mess.
Then we have the grey alien. Who is the grey alien? Does he really have the cure for the A-virus? What is the grey alien upto? Is the grey alien trying to alter the course of human history through time travel?
All these questions are answered at the end with an enthralling climax. One has to read till the end to understand the chain of events which occur. I just wished that the characters could have had more depth. Other than that, if you are into sci-fi, space, time travel and suspense, then it’s a must read!

"Paradox" by Arha Narrayan
This book is an Unputdownable book... which is really interesting. It is one of the best science fiction books I have read this year.This book is capable of raising reader's interest since the page one and the major climax is in last page, which create goosebumps.
Though this is a fiction book, it still has a lot to teach us. I understood how the world works when a disaster takes place and how everyone must do their part to help themselves and others.The events mentioned in the book are so detailed that you can visualise it in front of your eyes.I would say that the book is been written very beautifully and it is well developed book in narration as well as characters.
I highly recommend this book to everyone. Do give this is book a read to uncover all the dark secrets that are hidden in the book.
Happy reading 📚

These terms always sounds interesting "Space shuttle, NASA, giant flying saucer, automaton, grey alien, time traveling, extra terrestrial beings". You people know all these Jargons belongs to a science fiction. I am not a person who interests a lot in science fiction and this is my first book. It took few minutes for me to enter into the world of science fiction. After getting immersed into the story I felt me as a spectator prevailing in all the scenes watching veronica running, aliens standing beside me wow it was really interesting and I think that's the success of an author.
Special mention to the "Corpse rain" I was completely taken back when I read and imagined those corpses thrown from sky in real. It's unimaginable isn't it? As author said "LIFE AND SPACE ALWAYS COMPROMISE UNEXPLAINABLE MYSTERIES".
Veronica miller is a NASA administrator and the story begins by her fortieth birthday. In this story TIME and AGE plays an important role. The scene opens with the world in pandemic affected by deadly A- virus. During the course of corpse shower veronica meets a grey alien and the grey alien gives a prism and says this prism heals the world from A- Virus. But the grey alien leaves a statement which causes confusion in veronica that 'but you humans have to make one sacrifice'. Another story line is the starship corporation working in Nomado mission. Larry lazar is the founder of starship and he replaces his son as the captain of this mission. Max larry, son of Larry and his crew also gets a prism in their hands.
Does veronica uses the prism to save the earth from deadly A virus?Does Veronica and Max holds the same prism? What happened to the crew Nakshatra III ? Final question is what is Paradox? To get answers for all these questions read this interesting science fiction book.
How advanced the world grows and how much rich the technology develops I understood 'Humans are always Humans'. Loved ones leaving us for our external appearance, young girl being cheated and raped and so on. In the end "Every night is a hope of tomorrow's first light and love survives amidst the chaos".
A well planned story line, well presented with complete twists and twrils. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. A very good start for me to read a more of science fiction genre.

📘Book Review
📘Book Name - PARADOX
📘Author- Arya Narrayan
📘No. of pgs - 215
📘Genre- Sci- fi
📘Language- English, moderate
📘Arya Narrayan aka Kannan works as a software engineer in an MNC and lives with his family in Bangalore, India.
📘Other books by the author;-
The Evil Days
Massage
📘I must say that the sci-fi genre in the book has been carried out tremendously beautifully.
📘This is the best book that I have ever read in this genre and will recommend it to every sci-fi enthusiast.
📘Introducing with the plot, it so very matches the present scenario of the world.
It is the year 2020 and the whole world is undergoing a pandemic caused by the deadly A-virus.
📘What is A-virus??
A-virus is infectious as well as communicable. It causes age acceleration at a rate of almost ten times more than normal ageing causing the person to die very early.
📘Even the WHO cannot find a cure to this disease so far; when an alien claims and declares to have the cure for the virus.
📘So
Does the alien really has the cure to this disease???
OR
Is he really an alien????
Read to find out!!
📘Initially, I felt the book to be monotonous but got to know it best gradually as the pages unfolded.
📘I also felt the beginning of the book to be somewhat identical to the theme of ' Avengers' with all the space, planets but except for the superheroes 😁😁
📘The best part according to me eas the appropriate title 'Paradox'
📘The amount of effort put by the author in making the title relate of explain the content is electrifying or I should say mind-blowing.
📘This book is outrageously underrated.
I would request every SciFi lover to give it a try !!
I bet they won't regret!!
📘As I wrote earlier the book resembles the current scenario of 2020 but it was written back in 2017.
According to the author, this is the most superior and divine experience he has ever felt in his life.
📘You can buy the paperback version at INR 49 and the paperback at INR 220

The book "Paradox" written by Arya Narrayan is a science fiction which takes us to an extraordinary space time adventure. The book is based on the time where the earth is suffering from a pandemic due to the outbreak of A - virus very much similar to the present Covid19 pandemic. Veronica Miller, the administrator of NASA becomes the victim of some peculiar supernatural events. A Grey Alien comes to rescue the earth with a prism which radiates energy which can cure the A virus from human body. But everything comes with a price... Earth has to face horrendous effects for this favour. Will Veronica Miller be successful to save the earth from the destruction yet to come?? On the hand in the future Max Lazar son of the CEO Larry Lazar of starship corp. Sets on a space expedition to unreveal a mysterious unknown planet but some disastrous occurings take place which destroys his life and turns it upside down and leads him to flee to different time spans.
...
There were three timelines in the story which approached with their different ways towards a common origin. The three verdicts had been perfectly relayed with each other. The story was thrilling and the adventures were imbecile. I liked the way Veronica was dedicated to save her planet for the sake of mankind. The grey alien surely created a main attraction to the story. The way the story proceeded made me to read the whole thing with enthusiasm as I experienced three different stories being told at the same time. I liked the twist it had in the ending which was successful to make me impressed. The words used are really lucid and is definitely a must read if you like sci-fi. Specially the beginners will definitely enjoy the story. Arya Narrayan sir has proved that he has got a valiant potential of storytelling and is an efficient author. All over it was a great experience.

Paradox by Arya Narrayan is a Sci-Fi novel, which contains all the unavoidable elements of the genre like extraterrestrial life, time travel, space missions, and many more👽
The novel is set in 2025; it has been 5 years since the sudden outbreak of the deadly A Virus which has taken away the lives of millions of people around the globe. The virus has been affecting people with low immunity levels and no cure has been found apart from a red coloured pill which was believed to be good for increasing immunity.
The course of action begins with Veronica Miller, the administrator of NASA, along with many others witnessing a strange sight of corpses falling from the sky. Veronica is soon confronted by an alien who claims to know the magical cure for the virus, which requires a sacrifice in return.
Also, Max Lazar from Starship Corporation, the pioneer in space services, and his team is on a journey towards a newly found planet.
At the same time, grey aliens are on a mission to assert their presence on earth from time immemorial by travelling to different time periods in order to 'create' proofs.
The real 'paradox' comes to light when all these stories converge into a single one towards the end!
It is quite natural for you to assume that the book was written based on the situation we are currently facing after the outbreak of COVID 19. But the fact is that it was written years before the outbreak of the virus!
I loved the way the novel shifts from one narrative to the other, sometimes to a different time period, ranging from the stone age to future years which we are yet to witness. Not being a great fan or a regular reader of the genre, I was pretty confused about some of the terms used in the novel, but it is okay for a beginner to be confused, right? You will enjoy this short novel if you are a lover of Science Fiction.

Written in 2017, and surprisingly coinciding with the current events in the world, this book talks about a deadly virus that has taken over the existence of humanity in 2020, and led the world into a horrendous pandemic, with no cure whatsoever.
The story starts with our protagnist, Veronica Miller, a NASA administrator who introduces us to this rapid age accelerating virus that has created a havoc into the world. Infected people are ageing 10 times faster and dying much quicker because of the same.
Until, a grey alien visits Earth in 2025 (five years after the pandemic), promising to eradicate the world of its suffering.
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘𝗗 :
The book has everything that makes for a good science fiction story - alien invasions, intergalactic dimensions, time travel, futuristic impacts of Science, and generational paradox. This paradox, as the name of the book suggests, is what defines the story, but we don't get to know about it until the end of the story. And for this reason alone, I give this book a 3.5 rather than a 3, because I absolutely did not see that coming.
While the rest of the plot felt too convoluted at times, it still kept me invested because I was intrigued to know the ending, and it didn't disappoint. 👌🏼
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗖𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗕𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥 :
The emotional quotient of the book felt slightly amiss, the characters felt stoic and too stolid for me to develop any empathy for them.
There were some ridiculous moments like the alien not invading the temples because he felt a higher power of Shiva. The author exhibiting his religious sentiment through the book didn't sit too well with me in a Sci-Fi. But, to each their own. 🤷♀️
Overall, a great Sci-fi with captivating elements. Recommended if you enjoy SciFi. 🛸

"PARADOX" by Arya Narrayanan is a sci-fi thriller book. It set in 2025 and it related to Covid 19 and today's pandemic situations. A deadly virus called A-virus spread all over the world in 2020 and it kills millions of people. And no one know how this virus spread. This story start from a birthday celebration of Veronica, who is NASA administrative. In that celebration a dead body fell down from the sky, similar incident happened around the world in the same day. In 2025, 5 years after the incident a gray alien come to meet Veronica and give remedy to destroy the spread of A-virus.
Can humans believe the announcement from the grey alien? Who really is this grey alien? Where did it come from? What could the purpose of its visit to Earth be? Can the virus be able to control?
This is a well researched and well planned story line. Author Arya first written this on 2018 and he predicted today's pandemic situation, author says that it is a co-incident. This book is a package of thriller, mystery and pain.
I really like the plot and the characterization. He used simple and lucid language and the cover of the book is attractive. I also liked the title, it is simple and suitable for the story line.
I felt that the narration could have been more better, it fastly rushed to the end. The description of some scenes are missing. And also the story is set on this pandemic days and the emotional level is more important but it is missing. Otherwise it is a good read.
Over all it is a nice book and it provided us all the stuff of a sci- fic novel. If you are a sci-fi lover then read this one.

I am not a sci-fi person but I believe if
the book is good, then it doesn't even matter that you are reading your "kinda" genre or not. But honestly, I didn't find the book very interesting, which means I am still not a safer lover.
When you start reading the book most of us would actually relate with it since, the world is facing a "pandemic" in the book as well in the year 2020. There is no vaccine for the virus and even WHO is helpless. After 57 years, in 2025, a grey alien comes to earth, from a planet "Europa", with a "prism" which is supposed to be the remedy for the infection to which the whole world had fallen victim.
The grey alien give the prism to Veronica (works for NASA), and goes back to his planet. Most of the story revolves around what is actually the purpose of prism and how it can be used to save the world. In between the story takes a thrilling turn when Carrie tries to kill Veronica.
In the end finally Veronica solves the mystery of the virus and the pandemic ends.
The story is pretty unique but it desperately lacks a touch of humour, which made it very unengaging.
All the scenes, right from the starting to the end, are very serious and could have been better with a touch of humour, I felt.
There are no grammatical errors in the book.
On a positive note, I must say, the knowledge and the vocabulary of the writer is excellent, but on the other side this makes the scenes difficult to visualise as there are a lot of technical terms that everyone might not understand.
The book is a bit lengthy as well but Sci-Fi people may like it.
You can try the book if you want. It won't be a total waste of time.

The base of a promising science fiction thriller, for me is laid primarily upon three elements- Convincing -ness(of the plot and the details), page turner engaging, and of-course the writing itself. I could feel the book justifying the three factors. This is one of those books which show that good literature does not age. Also, the scary thing is not author's predictions came true but that they are closer and closer to coming true.
Veronica Miller, a NASA administrator and also an alumnus of Aerospace engineering department. She is our protagonist for this story. It was on her 40th birthday celebration, when she was about to cut the cake in an Orphanage, suddenly corpse start falling from the sky. From media, she understands that the entire world experienced the corpse rain. As she not predicted that she encountered a grey alien with a prism. The twist and turn starts from there. I am done spoiling. Sci-Fictions are read to enjoy. There is a lot to know, what is NASA's part in this story? Why does the Grey Alien appear and the reason for its appearance? Time for you to grab your copy.
I never knew India had good, solid pulp SF in English. This novel proved me wrong. Read it! It's the newest entrant to Indian Novels, and it's ...Catchy. Like or dislike the SCI-FI of this book, I bet you won't mind reading this new genre and style. Other than that, a Kickass book, Crazy SF, imaginative as hell, and entertaining as anything. A new idea by the author. If this were the US, I'd have expect a Hollywood movie on it very soon. This has an intriguing story line with engaging characters and kept me along to the end! Would highly recommend!!!

Our main protagonist is Veronica Miller who is working as a NASA administrator. While struggling to move on from her past and dealing with the pandemic, she hears the news of falling of corpses from the sky and then meets a grey alien who claims that he can cure the A virus but humans have to make one sacrifice. So Why did the aliens come? Are their motives as benign as they claim? Wonderfully written, thought provoking, intelligent sci-fi To tell more would only be a spoiler, so I would just say read it for yourself, it's wonderful. The journey it takes the reader, and indeed mankind, on is always engaging and often surprising.
This story has so many elements to it I don’t even know how I managed to keep up with them all! The narration was terrific! Wonderful performance from start to finish! It was like a story with multiple threads and things happening. What I loved most was the world author has created was without fail totally different from what I usually encounter in dystopian or sci-fi stories and I really appreciated that.
Along with all the standard trappings of science fiction - time and space travel, alien beings, pandemic - there are plenty of apocalyptic references hurled into the mix. There are also good secondary characters that make you want to follow up on them in their own stories. Having said that, I don't have any complaints. It's a solid four star book, and intend to read the other books from this author. Definitely recommending this to hardcore sci-fi lovers!

About the Book-
When I read the blurb and later the preface I was excited and even shocked to know that story plot was written in 2017 and exactly correlates to the 2020 Pandemic situation which we all are facing right now.
Coming to the plot, it's 2025 and the world is experiencing A- virus pandemic since 2020 due to which people on the Earth are ageing very fast. Our protagonist, Veronica Miller works as an NASA administrative. It's on a birthday that while cutting the cake corpses fall from the roof.
Things take interesting turn when Veronica comes in contact with a grey Alien and someone who claims to have a cure for the Virus which ofcourse expects something in return from Humans.
Now what will happen next?
How is Grey Alien connected to Earth?
Will the A-virus pandemic ever end?
At what cost will the Humans find solution?
And does the Grey Alien trustworthy?
My take on the book-
I loved how the whole story plot was relatable and the sci-fi touch made it more interesting.
The narration is Thrilling, fast paced and many events have been well presented.
For someone who loves Sci-fi genre with a bit terrifying narration that are a little scary will find this book thrilling.
Personally, I sat back and read this one with having different thoughts about how our Earth is changing and everything around is deteriorating. And that's what I felt is Author's intention also behind this story.
Definitely recommending this one to all the Sci-fi lovers. For someone who also wants to read book revolving around Pandemic situations this book is perfect.

Superb
Sci- Fi is a very difficult genre to write I feel as the author has to be very good in stimulating the mind to imagine the storyline he/she wanted. Here the author has done an excellent job in doing that. The storyline along with the chracter building to the action sequence are unbelievable and explained in an easy manner.
The story starts in the year 2025 when A virus has attacked alot of people on earth from the year 2020 and a pill is taken to build immunity, it doesn't save one from the disease but lowers the risk.
Veronica when having a birthday bash for herself with orphaned children gets a shock when a dead body falls from the sky.
From where did the body come from. NASA is also trying to figure out other options where there may be civilization. Will they be successful.
Grey Alien makes an announcement that he has a cure for A virus. is he to be trusted?
The amazing super Sci fi book needs to be read to get the answers. No one will be disappointed by reading the book, the author has good a great job in keeping the book fast paced and the readers hooked till the very last page.
The language of the book is simple, any beginner will also understand the book easily. The cover of the book is apt, I think very well done on the cover and the title too.
Do read the authors note in the beginning. Sent shivers down my spine to see the coincidence. I am not giving what the coincidence is but it will make you wonder alot about this book.
Overall a good book which keeps the readers engaged till the very end.

Paradox by Arya Narrayan is a perfect piece of work for sci-fi and fantasy lovers. Running through three different timelines, the book dishes out a flavourful combination of science, love, epidemic, mystery, space and aliens👽.
At different junctures of 21st century, some strange fictious events shape the plot of the story. In the year 2020, the planet is plagued by "A-Virus" which catalysts the ageing in human beings and forces the entire science faculty across the world to look for probable vaccine ( sounds bit similar to novel Coronavirus or Covid19).
In another part (2025) , Veronica Miller, a NASA administrator who happens to be the protagonist of the story is celebrating her 40th birthday. The supposed to be eventful cake cutting ceremony sends waves of shock and disgust when a corpse fells down from sky. Much to her horror she discovers through media that the entire world has witnessed "corpse rain". And out of nowhere appears a grey alien with a prism to cure the human race but with a term that the cure will come at the cost of some human sacrifice.
Distant in 2075, Larry and Max Lazar ,the father son duo of Starship Corporation embarks on a solo expedition Nomado named mission to a unnamed planet to be be taken aback by some shocking developments.
These seemingly different stories does have a common thread which once discovered makes a powerful edge of the seat thriller. To solve the mystery underlying these strange events, go and grab a copy of Paradox.
It's worth your time and money. Kudos to Arya Narrayan for writing this wonderful piece of scientifiction.

Are you interested in space , time travel (teleportation),aliens?
If yes, then trust me you will definitely enjoy reading this book.
Initially it feels like the book is about Veronica Miller but slowly and gradually one can understand the plot - "The paradox" to be precise.
Earth has been hit by the A-virus which causes anti-ageing of the people. And interestingly it attacks people with lower immunity levels and mostly children and old people.
But wait that's not where it stops,Veronica Miller -NASA Admistrator encounter the "Grey Alien" who says that he got the cure and hands over a prism ( which holds radiation) to Veronica but humans need to sacrifice for deriving the cure.
After future investigation , Veronica finds out that the sacrifice is that - Humans will turn into Grey Aliens once they use the cure.
Then follows a series of incidents where she tries to take the prism to 51-Basement to decompose it in Moon Microbes which can hold the radiations that will be generated by the prism.
Do you think that she will be successful in her mission?
On the other hand it's about Max, Nakshatra-III etc in a spaceship.
Trust me you will get the real shock in the book when you get to know the meeting point or the incidents that connects the two stories.
The Paradox in the book is very interesting and one needs to read till the end to understand the whole story.
P. S - There is a lot about time travel too

Paradox is a sci-fi fictional book.
I found the story line highly intriguing, it was a challenging read for me,as I am not much into sci-fi,but I absolutely enjoyed it.
I was hooked from the beginning,when the author mentioned that he had finished writing the book in 2017,but due to some issues the book was finally published in 2020, now here comes the great part,the story is so similar to 2020 pandemic, it was an absolute coincidence but I still found it amusing.
The author has used lucid language and I absolutely loved the way he has crafted each character making the storyline more intense.
The story is set in the future world (2025), where our main protagonist Veronica Miller,a NASA administrator is celebrating her 40th birthday, when she was cutting the cake in an orphanage, suddenly corpses start falling from the sky.A deadly a-virus has affected the whole world since 2020 and continuing its destruction even in 2025.
Surprisingly,Veronica meets a grey alien who claims to have the antidote of virus,but for that humans have to make a sacrifice.
Now what sacrifice the alien wants?
Will Veronica agree with it?
Will the virus destroy the world?
This is the best example to show, fictional really make us learn a lot.
The storyline is a bit busy as alot happens simultaneously, otherwise everything the title,cover, character personification gripping plot, everything is perfect.
Will highly recommend to sci-fi readers.
I found the story line highly intriguing, it was a challenging read for me,as I am not much into sci-fi,but I absolutely enjoyed it.
I was hooked from the beginning,when the author mentioned that he had finished writing the book in 2017,but due to some issues the book was finally published in 2020, now here comes the great part,the story is so similar to 2020 pandemic, it was an absolute coincidence but I still found it amusing.
The author has used lucid language and I absolutely loved the way he has crafted each character making the storyline more intense.

Before you get into it, let's just take a moment to appreciate the Author for giving this astonishingly wonderful book, that truly amazed me with its plot.
🔸 This book's a sci-fi thriller that will definitely blow your mind. As the author penned this plot in 2018 which is very much related to ongoing pandemic..and claims it to be a coincidence?? But how??!
🔸The story's about outbreak of A- break in various countries, which speeds up the age-acceleration once contracted and even WHO has no cure to it, and yes it's contagious!!How can this be sooo accurate??!
🔸The story revolves around our female Protagonist, who's a NASA administrative, witnesses this incident occurring for the very first time, by noticing a corpse falling from the sky, which also takes place across the world at the same time, facing a massive outbreak of the virus.
🔸After various horrifying incidents faced by her for 5 years straight, a grey alien arrives and approaches her saying that he knows the cure to it!!
Sounds cool rights?! Dig in to know how it ends! It's really one amazing mixture of imagination and thoughts put together by the author.
With a lucid language and a simple style it sure will not fail you to entertain. Who knows.. this story might well as can come true one day!!

Review of book 'Paradox' by author 'Arya Narayan'
Swipe to read the story description.
✨The book starts off as a very relatable read, since the world is currently suffering through a pandemic.
✨The language used is very rich and filled with technical terms. I had to Google many of them in order to understand their meaning, personally that made it quite boring for me.
✨Narration is a bit slow paced and it felt as a the story was a bit unnecessarily stretched.
✨The book covers many elements making it engaging like the aliens, space, time travel along with a lot of adventure.
However if you are looking for a refreshing read, then this book would not be your first choice. It is a science fiction which has a tight serious plot line.
✨I felt that the book could have been made more interesting by adding some sort of small little illustrations in between or by by making it a bit humorous.
My Rating- 3/5 ⭐
Author - Arya Narrayan @arya.narrayan
Final Say-
Science fiction with the concept of space, aliens, a deadly virus, pandemic and a threat to human life.
This book has a different approach and the idea was developed in the year 2018 even before the pandemic approached.
A good attempt but could have been written in a better way.

🔥This is a Sci-Fi thriller which as you know, is one of my least explored genre and hence it took a lot of time for me to go through this book. It was nice and intriguing overall, with an interesting beginning and end but I felt it a bit unnecessarily dragged in between.
🔥Veronica Miller, the main protagonist and NASA administrator is cutting cake for her birthday in an orphanage in 2025 when suddenly corpses start falling from the sky. A deadly virus named A-virus has affected the whole world since 2020 and even in 2025 it's havoc continues. Then suddenly Veronica meets an alien who claims that he is having concrete cure to that virus but for that humans have to make a sacrifice. Who is that alien and what is his purpose behind that sudden appearance? What sacrifice is he talking about?
🔥Apart from basic Sci-Fi elements like time travel, space travel, aliens and stuff, there were so many other elements involved. The narration was nice but there was so much happening at the same time, that sometimes it was getting hard to follow and grasp everything. It got a little monotonous in between and ending was kind of predictable but overall, I liked the book and it was an out of comfort zone read for me. Also, the cover looks so cool. Sci-Fi lovers can pick this book up.

‘Paradox’ is the most interesting science fiction book that I have read this year. After reading the plot, I couldn’t resist reading it at my earliest convenience. The plotline depicts that the world is infected by a virus. It disrupted the whole financial and physical structure of the planet. People are looking for its remedy desperately. Among all this mess, a grey alien showed up and stated that he has the anti-done for this virus. Now the question is why humans should trust him?
The story is set in the future (2025). The main protagonist is Veronica Miller. Veronica is a NASA administrator, and she was the one who discovered that grey alien. But to treat this illness, humans have to make a sacrifice. What is the sacrifice? What challenges does Veronica have to face in this story? To find all this out, you all have to read the story.
The storyline is very enthralling. All the audiences will be onboarded to live an experience full of thrill, adventure, and fiction. I liked the flow of the story. And I always have a soft corner for sci-fictions, and this book didn’t let me down. It is also full of space tech terminology, so all the readers are onboarded to learn new things as well. I would highly recommend this book to all my lovely readers.
