Johnny Gone Down 
I started reading this book at 11 in the night while i was sleep deprived for two days. After reading 30 pages or so, it got so interesting that I finished the next 100 pages before sleeping only to get up in the morning and finishing the rest of it.A tale of isolation, rise and fall- an awsome awsome read JOHNY GONE DOWN :) :) :)
The author somehow magically constructs a character thats not only shallow but too much Mary Sue. An interesting starting chapter with the Russian roulette & all but as the story proceeds you see the author himself have lost interest in telling the story. Towards the end, the writing clearly depicts the authors hurry to meet the publishers deadline, and the reader is pissed off with all the drag and this for a novel with barely 230 pages. But still the story (which is more of a screenplay

Its a fantastic book from start to finish with lessons on Bhagawad Gita told in a very simple unpreachy way. Way to go Karan!!! looking forward to your third novel
After having read Keep Off The Grass, I had become an admirer of Karan Bajaj's writing but after Johnny Gone Down I have become a fan. Now to many it may seem like a dramatic high-paced, stop gap, masala filled Bollywood cinema or an overzealously violent Hollywood flick.

At one point your rational mind goes on a rant chiding you for even buying into a premise as such but then that very moment the philosophical part of the
My brother recommended me to read this book. I got involved into the Story as soon as i started reading it and finished in 2 days. Johnny Gone Down is full of adventure. I enjoyed reading it.It's about adventurous journey of Johnny (Nikhil Arya). It's a mixture of thrill, action, violence, emotions and love. Johnny's life takes weird twists and turns, but at the end, he comes to know that those twists and turns or unraveled threads are actually in pattern.The Canvas of this Book is really Huge.
The time i read this I was on a strictly Indian author dosage :) I must say that they didnt disappoint me. Johnny Gone Down is an out and out paperback. I have always thought paperbacks to be like the fast food edition of much more elaborate hard cover recipes. I would love to see this made in a Bollywood movie. I had thought of Vivek Oberoi in the lead when I had read this.

Narration Supposing Books Johnny Gone Down
Nikhil Arya has fallen. Once, he was an Ivy League scholar with a promising future at NASA; now, at forty, he is broke, homeless, and minutes away from blowing his brains out in a diabolical modern-day joust. It wasn't meant to be this way. An innocent vacation turned into an epic intercontinental journey that saw Nikhil become first a genocide survivor, then a Buddhist monk, a drug lord, a homeless accountant, a software mogul and a deadly game fighter. Now, twenty years later, Nikhil aka Johnny is tired of running. With the Colombian mafia on his trail and his abandoned wife and son ten thousand miles away, he prepares for his final act, aware that he will have lost even if he wins. Or will he? Is there any greater victory than living a life that knows no limits, a world that has seen no boundaries? From the bestselling author of Keep Off the Grass comes the once-in-a-lifetime story of an ordinary man fighting an extraordinary destiny. Can he pick up the pieces one last time or will Nikhil, now Johnny, go down for good?List Books Conducive To Johnny Gone Down
