INSANITY FANTASY SERIES FROM THE GUPTARA TWINS

Title: Conspiracy of Calaspia

- By Guptara Twins

It doesn't happen too often in our publishing business to come across a truly astonishing work of powerful fictional imagination aimed at the vast audience of Young Adults and written, moreover, by two eighteen-year old boys! The Guptara Twins, Jyoti and Suresh - of Indian-British heritage and living in Switzerland - have managed to create an extraordinary epic fantasy series "WARS OF INSANITY", that will eventually comprise 7 volumes: the first one "The Conspiracy of Calaspia" has just been published in English in India in December 2006 by the original Indian publisher Tara -India Research Press in New Delhi.

Already before publication of the first volume, the news of this great series quickly spread in the publishing world: Italian rights to the first three vol-

umes have been sold in a pre-emptive deal, for a considerable advance to Mondadori. The German rights have been sold at auction to Rowohlt Verlag in a three-book deal with a very good advance (6 figures).

Rowohlt was really impressed by the narrative maturity of the Twins and by their powerful imagination and the Publishers are convinced of the potential of the Insanity Saga which combines the qualities of the classical fantasy with a very modern point of view.
