It’s not hard to find novels with women playing the central character and neither is it hard to find novels with serial killers. But how many of you have read novels where the central character is not just a woman but also a serial killer. Add to that the fact that she’s a playgirl and also a feminist in certain ways and you get Zaydee, which by the way means prosperous. She is easily the best part of this amazingly fast-paced novel, “That Girl Started Her Own Country” by the enigmatic “Holy Ghost Writer” known for his previous novel, “The Sultan Of Monte Cristo”.
Right from the very first page you feel that the novel is special in more ways than one. Apart from the unique central character Zaydee, the novel takes you into a world of passion, cyber-crime, financial technicalities and even love. The contrast between the two central characters is simply hard to get a grip on as the tables are completely turned in the stereotypical battle of the sexes. This happens when the innocent journalist, Steven Larson becomes too much of a problem for a secret society Zaydee intends to destroy. But he has a secret protector in Zaydee who realizes that not only is Steve Larson si the man who bring the secret society down but also the only men she ever loved, something she never thought was possible.
The real battle begins when the power of this secret society which resembles “Illuminati” collides with the sheer brutal force of a serial killer in Zaydee along with the intelligence of an honest and innocent journalist in Steve Larson.
The writing style is amazingly fresh, something very difficult to achieve given that a crime novel has its own limitations. Also, the novel maintains its own true character and identity despite being influenced in several ways by Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series. One cannot help but notice the resemblance right from the title of the novel itself. The central character of Zaydee will surely remind you of Lisbeth Salander in every way possible, including her attitude, her modus operandi and even her sexual escapades with both men and women.
But despite the influence, Holy Ghost Writer succeeds in taking it to a whole new level as Zaydee seems to be a lot more ambitious than Salander. Not only does she intend to crush the secret society-she also intends to create a world ruled by women with her at the pinnacle as Typhoon Zaydee.
“The Girl Started Her Own Country” is an amazing read with powerful characters and a strong plot. The refreshing writing style simply helps the cause and is an added bonus for the readers. But be warned, that you must read this book with an open mind as comparing it with Stieg Larsson’s work will not let you appreciate its beauty in its entirety.(less)
