I love this book! This is another remarkable novel by Robert Dresner — Gritty, intense, and emotionally engaging, The Karma Conspiracy will take you to places in the heart and soul that are hardly imaginable. If you have never been to India, it will take you there. If you have made the journey, it will remind you of all the wonder. His honesty and understanding of the spiritual quest is extraordinary.

If you're a Baby Boomer who somehow missed the opportunity ... (as I did) to travel to India during the 60’s-70’s in search of self and/or God, you’re in luck. The Karma Conspiracy will take you on a memorable journey via Max Rild, the leading character. I could hardly put the book down once I started. I loved the story and the characters and so will you (that is of course if the concept is your cup of chai)!

as Max, Shunya and Diane search high and low across India for answers to their spiritual doubts. What could be just a procession of gurus, yogis and towns is carried along nicely by the novel’s fast pace, set by brief chapters and jumps from one protagonist to the next.

To match the pace, Dresner deftly employs cliffhangers at the end of many chapters, jumping off to Max in the Himalayas and leaving Shunya in Delhi to fend for his life. The characters’ paths get a bit tangled at times, but the device reveals how the characters’ various travels fit chronologically and thematically. I loved the story and the characters and so will you (that is of course if the concept is your cup of chai)!
