Indian author Samit Basu is now represented by the British Zeno Literary Agency.
Agent John Berlyne writes “Samit is a very much a rising star on the scene on India—his Gameworld Trilogy hit the best seller lists over there, and he joins Zeno having sent his novel Turbulence into us—a novel which we absolutely loved. It’s an extremely clever and terrifically inventive take on the Superhero genre and one with a very fascinating Indian slant. Full of energy, intrigue, action and verve, Turbulence packs a serious punch and its central plot poses two key questions: How would you feel if you actually got what you wanted? And what would you do if you could really change the world? Turbulence is due to be published in the Autumn by Hachette India.”
Basu is also a graphic novel writer. His Devi and The Tales of Vishnu Sharma were published by Virgin Comics. Berlyne says Basu also “recently completed a GN project with Mike Carey and is working on a number of Bollywood screenplay projects.”
