As Book Two in the Exiled Rogue series, Origin picks up right where Codes left off. The first thing I noticed was the growth of the writer, and the growth of the characters. Character development, and the development of the prose itself, lended a huge hand to an already accomplished story. The first book was very simple in its essence, a perfect manuscript for those seeking meaning or having a spiritual awakening. This sequel though, this sequel packs a punch!
It takes the foundation from the first book and layers the world with both past events and present events, and even alludes to the future of the series in its climax.
Origin covers a lot on mortality and death, especially grief (no spoilers) and I found this humbling. The objective perspective of Sandeep Adnani is unique in the fact that it's not nihilistic, but actually optimistic. This is inline with my own personal philosophies on life, which is somewhat rare to find. That outlook in itself is an excellent reason to read this series.
The changes from book one, including TTN, are fleshed out and believable. My favourite character was the mysterious Penumbra. The Mother/Afterlife is explored well yet leaves more to be desired. The next plane is especially intriguing and I'm hoping the third book takes us there. Both the prophecy and relationships have given the story much more leverage than the first book, and the twist in book two was written especially well (Sandeep really threaded the needle). The ending left me wanting to finish the next one, which is rare for me as I don't usually read series based books.
My verdict: Origin of the Exiled Rogue is a transformative and spiritual journey disguised as an adventure tale. Think "Indiana Jones" meets "The Alchemist" meets "The Matrix" and you're heading in the right direction of what The Exiled Rogue Series is like. I recommend it to all readers who are looking for a unique genre mash and vivid storytelling.

The Origin of the Exiled Rogue is the second book in the Exiled Rogue series.

It seems the author has a knack for interweaving philosophy and science-fiction in his work. It works to an extent. It once again raises the question of what actually is the reality through its character’s journey.

The year is 2039, the narrative begins a century after the Host’s visit to Earth. The Host shares the story of its mother planet and we get a glimpse into another version of life that could exist. This second instalment is more about exploring the Host’s character, his back story. Besides the Host, the plot revolves around five other characters: Aurora Soto, Zhang Wei Liu, Tristan Fare, Matthew Fernsby, and Sid Rao.

The book promises an insight into the time space continuum, the evolution of life, as we know it, and anything and everything under the sun. It seems as if we are looking at things from above a thick slab of glass, the image is distorted, but it’s there.

The Origin of the Exiled Rogue is the second installment of the Exiled Rogue trilogy. The writer announced that this is going to be a trilogy after the release of The Codes Of The Exiled Rogue

The first book itself was so breathtakingly fresh breath of air. It is by far the most amazing, truth shattering, kindest books I have read. The writer is counselling the readers through his book and by this medium it's as if he is passing us the codes to the better life!

After reading the first book, I have been following the writer on twitter @sandeepadnani and I downloaded this second book The Origin of the Exiled Rogue this morning.

I have just finished reading this continuation of the journey of The Host and his companions and I am spellbound.

There is so much more to takeaway from this book than just the story. This is worth a read and keeping it for life.

Putting all of the spiritual lessons we have learned to work and keeping our vibration high will take practice, but the more confident and solid we are in our knowing of our paths, the stronger we will be. Through this allegory, of sorts, Sandeep Adnani has described how it can work, even with the dark trying to close in. Light and love is always the answer.

The Origin of the Exiled Rogue is second instalment in Exiled Rogue series by Sandeep Adnani. This was an excellent expansion of the insights to the previous book 'The Codes Of The Exiled Rogue'; but more importantly, it reinforced and pulled together different personal viewpoints. The story questions the reader's view of reality.

The book revolves around six main characters, The Host, Zhang Wei Liu, Matthew Fernsby, Tristan Faire, Aurora Soto, Sid Rao. The Origin of the Exiled Rogue based in the year 2039, after a century of The Host's first visit of Planet Earth. The Host shares his experiences of Planet Mother, a beautiful place, where people can communicate through thoughts and can manifest anything at will. Sid, Aurora and Tristan embark on an enchanting and interesting journey to face truths and reality. Even though this is a work of fiction, it felt so applicable to our world today and was a total shift in perspective.

Sandeep Adnani is an incredible author with an incredible message. The book, even though it is apparently fictionalized to a large extent, taps into some very real human emotions and connections, leaving the reader to reach their own conclusions about the message within. Because of how it's written in narrative form, the lessons are experienced rather than memorized and in that way resonate more with readers.

'The Origin of the Exiled Rogue' is an adventure of a mind. It will take you from recent times to the beginning of creation to the evolution, circle around time and space and bring you back to the very ground you stand on and makes you question, quiet literally everything under the sun and beyond. The speciality of this book is that, it gives you a point of view in the macro level and micro level simultaneously. It talks about theories, that takes you on a journey from one insight to the next explaining and questioning the existence of evolution: universal and personal. 

It's hard to say if this is a piece of fiction or philosophy. Author Sandeep Adnani intended this in a philosophical point of view that triggers the mind with a thirst for soul searching. If seen from the point of view of philosophy, this is an exceptional piece of literature that everyone should read.

"The Origin of the Exiled Rogue" is the second part of the Exiled Rogue trilogy. The story picks up from where its prequel left. The Host, Matthew and Zhang Wei had shared the codes with the trio- Tristan, Aurora and Sid, who faced a truth which they could hardly imagine.

This part describes the history & the background of The Host,the creator of the Treasure & Trash,aka T&T group. The T&T is not just a group, but a mission, aimed to reach the humans worldwide. The mission is to put forward the reality of "the truth" in front of the people. Little did The Host know that this truth lead to the revelation of a prophecy(which is going to be discussed in the final instalment of the trilogy).

This part contains a huge turmoil of emotions & also ends on an unexpected emotional note. In accordance with the first part this one too revolves around the philosophy of life and covers the different aspects of life in every possible way. The whole story seemed more like a conversation to me which gave the book a soothing touch. The impressive narration, the riveting plot & the author's amazing diction makes it an engaging read.

This is the thing I love about series that one develops a sort of bonding with certain characters & wants to experience more of them. In this case, I was closely attached to the host & after reading it, you might too. This part gives a sense of tranquillity & can easily be finished in one go!

The book starts exactly where the first book was left off. Followed by the initiation of Tristan, Aurora and Sid, The Host is eager to share his life as an advanced being from his planet. Zhang Wei, one of the oldest associate of The Host, is on his deathbed and wants to know everything before he passes on. The story takes a sharp turn when the POVs shift between people on planet Earth and 'Mother'. There remains more unanswered questions about the existence and belief of ‘the truth’ as revealed in the first book, paving the way to the third book as an untold prophecy throws a wrench in the plans.

What I liked the most about this book that the author explained most of the occurrence with technicality and reasoning. There was a perfectly balanced explanation for almost everything and what wasn't explained is promised to be in the last book. As the POVs shifted and each of the mystery was tackled, the story became a lot more interesting.

What put me off the most was the romance between The Host and Aurora. It felt forced upon the readers which ended in Aurora being pregnant and left alone. It felt weird, to put it mildly. Introduction of Maya in the group with no concrete purpose whatsoever also felt awkwardly placed in the story.

All in all, I enjoyed this book more than the first one.

I give it a 3.5/5. 🌟

“The Origin of the Exiled Rogue” by Sandeep Adnani is the 2nd book in the metaphysical sci-fi “The Exiled Rogue Series”. Book 1 ended with Tristan, Sid, and Aurora becoming friends after hours of discussion. With the secret of the support group disclosed to them, they are now part of the mission. Book 2 brings forth the mission’s origin - how it all began. There’s a subplot on how the 3 friends are taking it further through their efforts. A big twist in the latter part of the story halts the mission and a new journey begins for its Founder, a.k.a. The Host.

Having read Book 1, I was excited to read specifically about 2 subplots in the series.
First was the flashback story of 2 old members of the mission. There’s not a word about it in book 2. It makes me a li’l sad as I wanted to know more about their journey in the mission.
The second was the aftereffects of the meeting on Tristan’s relationship with his girlfriend Maya. This subplot had the potential to begin an exciting turn of events, in my opinion. Sadly, this missed opportunity resulted in a few bland paragraphs on their bonding.

Though I’m not pleased with the plot development, I look forward to the journey ahead - in the 3rd and last book of the series.

The Origin of the Exiled Rogue is the second part of The Exiled Rogue Series, which evolved in a trilogy. The six years that author Sandeep Adnani took to nurture this metaphysical and transformational fiction can be really appreciated. The world building in these books is completely original and the storytelling is amazingly imaginative. If readers want to enjoy this at maximum, it is probably recommended to start for the first book.

In this second part, Adnani invites readers to join Zhang Wei, Matthew, Tristan, Aurora, Maya and Sid to navigate through truths untold and worlds unexplored. The characterization here is exceptional: their personalities are different from each other and multidimensional. They are well-developed in a creatively plotted story.

This is easily one of the most engaging books in the Science Fiction genre I have encountered. Anyway, with a surprisingly relatable cast of characters and a fascinating plot, this book will appeal to readers across genres.

The Origin of the Exiled Rogue is the second book of the "Exiled Rogue trilogy". The writer announced that this is going to be a trilogy after the release of the first book, which in itself was so breathtakingly. It is by far the most amazing, truth shattering books I have ever read!

This book showcases the year 1939, the origin or the beginning of everything. The host after making his first trip to planet Earth, realises a truth about humans and that sparks a movement back on his home planet, which in return forces him to turn rogue. Almost a century later, Zhang, Matthew, Tristan, Aurora, Maya and Sid navigates through truths untold and worlds beyond their exploration. The most amazing part is, in this thrilling journey, they only have CODES to guide them!

Again, another masterpiece by Sandeep Adnani! What a read and what engrossing storieline. It completely changes my perspective towards life. The gripping story and the way plot twists are placed, hand down, worth everything! I absolutely enjoyed the 2nd part and I highly recommend the book

The origin of the exiled rogue" is Book 2 in the science fiction series by Sandeep Adnani. After reading the first book in the series, I was more than excited to read the second one. And I was not disappointed. As the name suggests, this book is the story about the origin of the rogue who we know from book one. The story moves back a 100 years in the past to year 1939 and tells us how the rogue came into being.

I liked Book 2 better than Book 1 as the writing style in this one was more polished and simply phenomenal. Apart from that, the backstory of the rogue sated my curious soul as secrets slowly unveiled and I had a few 'oh, so that is what happened' moments.

Apart from this, the monotone that Book 1 took at places was not seen in this part. One can safely say the author has come far from where they previously stood.

The plot twists were planned to a T, were intriguing and unpredictable. I recommend the series to all the science fiction readers.

Overall, I give this book a 4.3/5

“The Origin of the Exiled Rogue” was written by the Amazon bestselling author, Adnani Sandeep and it is the second book of the trilogy of The Exiled Rogue Series. This book continues with the lives of the characters of book number 1 “The Codes of the Exiled Rogued”.

This is a story based in the year 2039, and it follows The Host sharing his experiences of Planet Mother, a beautiful and unique place, where things can be communicated through thought. Tristan, Aurora and Sid are the main characters of this incredible story. They embark on a fascinating journey, where they had to face untold truths and where there are more questions than answers. They can only trust in The Codes.

I really enjoyed reading this masterpiece. I think Adnani Sandeep ´s prose is fantastic, which makes this novel so interesting. The twist and turns of the story make you continue reading. I really plan to stick to this series.

The name of this amazing book is “The Origin of the Exiled Rogue” and it was written by Sandeep Adnani. It is the second book in the Exiled Rogue Series, which is a wonderful trilogy. The cover of the book is gorgeos and very attractive to any reader, which was another reason why I picked it up. The blurb was intriguing too. One of the best things of this book is the easy writing style which makes it this fiction book great for a general audience.

The book is about The Host who came to the Planet Earth in the year 1939 and a century later he tells his experience in the Planet Mother and starts a definite journey. It starts from chapter number twenty-five so in my opinion it is important to read the previous book.

All in all, I am very happy with my reading. It is a highly entertaining read. The fantasy, bookish themed fiction that shocked me at every page. I thoroughly recommend it.

An exquisite second part.
And the adventure is “back for good”. This is the second book written by Sandeep Adnani. "The Origin of the Exiled Code” belongs to the same series and again I found myself in this story. After a century passes by, the characters in the story find themselves surrounded by mysteries and pristine unknown worlds. This time they must be more careful than before.
It is an action-packed tale with very dynamic characters that make your mind travel throughout magical places. Even though the plot is futurist, there are several topics that correlate with today´s world.
The author provides us with a complex plot, full of intrigue and dangers. Certainly, I think that these are the reasons why I liked this second part very much. Again, the characters are dynamic and make this tale extremely compelling. While I was reading, I was able to visualize every place and every moment in this adventure. I enjoyed it! I thoroughly recommend this novel.

“The Origin of the Exiled Rogue” is the second book in “The Exiled Rogue” series written by Sandeep Adnani. It is a science fiction novel but it is not only that. It is also a deep metaphysical exploration of life and death, afterlife, truth and the universe. Seldom have I read such an original, compelling and thought-provoking story presented in the form of a futuristic fiction book. It has well-developed and interesting characters and gripping descriptions of the settings. I think it is a story that is worth reading.
This book continues the story of the characters presented in “Code of the Exiled” and I think that it is better to read them in order to fully enjoy them.
Aurora, Tristan and Sid, meet with the Host to ask and answer questions about the great mysteries of the universe. He will share his experiences of Planet Mother and will change the lives of the ones who are willing to listen to him.

Sandeep Adnani is the award-winning author for The Codes of the Exiled Rogue, its sequel, The Origin of the Exiled Rogue, continues to unfold the exploits of The Host and the mysterious codes. This novel begins where the first novel left off, in the year 2039, it even beginnings on chapter 25.  Humans are developing into covetous creatures, desiring power and greed above all things. They venture to understand what is going on around them as they discuss multiple subjects.

 

The Origin of the Exiled Rogue, by Sandeep Adnani feels as if you are entering the lives of the characters are they search out the meaning of their lives, interact with each other, and grow as friends and companions. I loved the statement, “Two sides of the coin are called humanity”. This novel has the perfect amount of suspense, but should be read in order as the first book introduces the characters and the purpose of The Host and codes.

I loved this book!

“The Origin of the Exiled Rogue," book two of the trilogy, excels in crafting well-developed and immensely likable characters. The author skillfully weaves a plot filled with twists and turns, ensuring that readers remain thoroughly engaged and compelled to keep turning the pages.

What makes this book particularly enjoyable is its ability to cater to both Sci-Fi enthusiasts and those who simply appreciate a well-told story. The seamless blend of character development and a plot with unexpected developments contributes to the overall appeal.

The author's ability to maintain a high level of storytelling from the first book to the second speaks volumes about their consistency and skill in creating an immersive literary experience. For readers who relished the first installment, this sequel doesn’t disappoint and is a solid recommendation for anyone seeking an enthralling narrative in the Sci-Fi genre.

This is the second book of the Exiled Rogue trilogy. The Origin of the Exiled Rogue continues from where it ended in The Codes of the Exiled Rogue. In this novel, the Host and his group continue to seek answers to the questions of life they have.

Even though it’s a fictional-futuristic novel, it has some interesting reflexions between lines. This gripping read will take you to places you never heard before. I think the big selling point in this story is the way the author narrated it like watching a movie, but you are actually reading it. Doubtless the pace and details make this book a must read for all sci-fiction lovers.

On the whole, I think this book from Sandeep Adnani is a very intriguing and exciting read that will leave you thinking and wondering about life as we know it. That’s why I’m giving this novel four out of five stars.

The cover of the book captured my attention as soon as I saw it. “The Origin of the Exiled Rogue” is the second book in the Exiled Rogue series, written by Sandeep Adnani; with this series the author became a novelist.
The story flies backwards to the past in the year 1939, when the Host made the first trip to Planet Mother. Then the novel goes a hundred years to the future, when the Host shares what he knows about Planet Mother, where people communicate using their thoughts and manifest at will.
Reading this novel made me change perspective; it is certainly thought provoking and leaves you with a feeling of having explored the unexplored, together with the characters. I would definitely recommend reading this book and also the previous one. I liked very much how the author penned this novel, the vocabulary and ideas used were excellent.

I loved it! The Origin of the Exiled Rogue is a nicely woven science fiction book set in the future, more precisely in 2039, which is centered around characters from the previous and first book in a trilogy. Tristan, Aurora and Sid are the main characters of both books and their interactions and dialogues have successfully accomplished. They jump on a fascinating journey, where they would have to face secrets and plenty of unanswered questions.
I have spent entire days lost in the pages of this narrative which is eye-opening and which I believe will change the way we conceive life. Some philosophical themes are touched and the codes towards a better life, but the main focus is put on the knowledge the Host shares about Planet Mother, where people communicate through thoughts.
Eagerly waiting for the sequel, I absolutely recommend this second installment to any type of adult reader!

This is the second book in the Exiled Rogue series written by Sandeep Adnani. The origin of the exiled rogue, set in the past and future, tells the story of the Host, who after having experienced what life is like in Planet mother, he shares what he knows. People there are completely different; they communicate through thought and can do what they please.
The narrative is very good and character portrayal is great. The story caught my attention as soon as I started reading it. It is certainly thought provoking. The reader, together with the characters, takes a journey to the unknown.
I will recommend this read for sure. It is very well written and enjoyable. I finished reading it with many thoughts going around my head.

The origin of the exiled rogue
Author: Sandeep Adnani
Genre: Science Fiction
My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐🌥

This is a sequel to Sandeep Adnani's 'The codes of the exiled rogue'. The story followes the alien being and his disciples on Earth, where he reveals the nature of his origin on his planet, the planet mother. He discloses how he came to know about Earth and why he had to leave his own planet and stay on Earth for nearly a century. Many more turns of events occur, which gives the story a nice twist.

I liked this one better than the previous one. The story was short, the flow nice and smooth. The author managed to grab multiple events and thread them together to form a beautiful landscape of a science fiction.

Again, this book will be recommended to science fiction lovers. But to grasp the contents of this one, one must read the first book of the sequel as well.

This is the 2nd book in the trilogy and way more simplified than the former. This one doesn't exactly begin from where the story left off in book 1, but it does talks about the beginning of the very mission all of them agreed upon by the end.

As Host, the leader took his first-ever trip to earth, a century back in 1939, he came across some insane and unbelievable truths of mankind. His mission was the genesis of his findings. The book has two parts, 1st in past and the other in the present. At many places of the story, it felt like a much-exaggerated version of Guardians of the Galaxy. But this definitely is different. Well, the author has left no stones unturned in amazing us with his mystical work. This work is as amazing as it could be for a newbie.

Book: The origin of the exiled rogue #2
Author : @sandeepadnani
Book 2 of the exiled rogue trilogy
🌸
Just like the truth, the moon cannot be hidden for long either,”💞💞✔
🦋
The year is 1939

The story continues from where it left. So it is necessary to read the series in its order.
The previous book was just the beginning, so I was pretty EXCITED about this one. but while reading I felt fairly withdrawn😌, the author should have written a standalone novel instead of a trilogy that way it would have been better. Nevertheless, I have read 2 books already, so I'll read the 3rd book as well, HOPE IT GETS BETTER!!!!! Stay tuned 🥀

This is book 2 in the Exiled Rogue series. It would be better to read book 1 prior to this one to fully understand the plot. This book focuses on the journey and past of Host's life. It explores the character of Host further. Many things are revealed in this book and new information is provided. It introduces new characters in this book. This is a well written book , it grips the reader. Characters are portrayed well and they develop throughout the book. This book not necessarily follows the story of book one but it does connect to it occasionally. Pace was good and it remained constant. Overall I enjoyed reading this book.

What happens when one person from an advanced planet tells you the story of visiting the Earth?

There remains more unanswered questions about the existence and belief of ‘the truth’ that are partly revealed in this second installment of the trilogy by Sandeep Adnani.

How the Host shares his experience to Aurora and Sid? What the plot depicts by shifting from the people on Earth to "Mother"?

The book opens up in Hong Kong in 2039 and describes futuristic ambience with a well-narrated mystery.

How the Host treats Aurora? Read the book to learn more.

“The Origin of the Exiled Rogue” by Sandeep Adnani is the 2nd book in the metaphysical sci-fi “The Exiled Rogue Series”.Book 2 brings forth the mission’s origin - how it all began. There’s a subplot on how the 3 friends are taking it further through their efforts. A big twist in the latter part of the story halts the mission and a new journey begins

The book has believable characters while it progresses mostly through discussions and narration. Still, it manages to capture your attention and makes you go on a contemplative journey.
