Praise for "Shantaram" ""Shantaram" is a novel of the first order, a work of extraordinary art, a thing of exceptional beauty. If someone asked me what the book was about, I would have to say everything, everything in the world.

Gregory David Roberts is a suitable giant, a dazzling guru, and a genius in full. Moses Isegawa, author of "Abyssinian Chronicles" and "Snakepit" " Praise for "The Mountain Shadow" Roberts s sequel to "Shantaram" defies easy categorization, one of its many charms. The dashing hero Lin, an Australian fugitive, is worldly, two-fisted, rides a motorcycle, has a social conscience, quotes great writers and, as the book opens, struggles bravely to get over his lost love, Karla . . . He narrates his interactions with many larger-than-life street types in an energetic and often salty first person . . . . Roberts keeps the action moving and the narrative engaging . . .
