In a bold and cinematic debut, Atharva Parkar announces the release of his first novel, Eclipse of Redemption: The Chronicle of the Unseen Nexus – The First Awakening. A literary thriller that blends the gritty realism of crime with the mysticism of ancient mythology, this novel sets the stage for an epic saga where the seen and unseen collide.
At the heart of the story is Devansh Vaishravan, a young professional navigating life in modern-day Mumbai. A chance encounter with a mysterious black bag spirals into a deadly entanglement with Rana Devraj Singh, a ruthless crime lord whose name echoes fear across the underworld. Devansh’s tragic and brutal demise sends shockwaves through his family, especially his elder brother Aarav, a devout man rooted in the spiritual traditions of Halebidu, Karnataka.
But what begins as a quest for answers soon turns into something much deeper. Aarav finds himself drawn into an invisible war — one not just fought with weapons and violence, but through visions, omens, and ancient prophecies. As secrets unfold, he uncovers a hidden legacy that links his bloodline to mythic relics and divine mandates buried deep within the temples of the Hoysala dynasty. What follows is a gripping tale of transformation — where grief becomes purpose, and vengeance transforms into destiny.
Eclipse of Redemption is more than just a thriller — it is a meditation on faith, fury, and fate. As the narrative unfolds across timelines and sacred geographies, Parkar crafts a world where the mythological is not just metaphorical, but real — and the forces of darkness are both within and beyond.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the book, Atharva Parkar shares, “I’ve always been fascinated by the silent power of ancient stories — how mythology still breathes beneath the surface of our lives. This book is my attempt to explore the idea that what we think of as myth might just be the unseen side of truth.”
Atharva’s writing style is visually rich and emotionally immersive, with a storyteller’s flair for suspense and a philosopher’s quest for meaning. His characters are layered, driven by love, loss, and the search for redemption. While Eclipse of Redemption delivers the edge-of-the-seat thrill expected of a crime novel, it also leaves readers reflecting on spirituality, heritage, and the larger cosmic order.
This book marks the first installment in The Chronicle of the Unseen Nexus series, with more awakenings and revelations to come.
