"A captivating journey so far. Discussion of early, primitive substitution ciphers was quite interesting.
Singh's description of wars and the pivotal role crypto played in them was gripping and breathtaking.

Can't wait to see what he's got to say about modern computers and cryptography..." — Mar 02, 2014 10:01AM

"Holmes has always held a special place in my heart. After all, it was him with whom I had started reading English books.

I took the book up with a bit of hesitation... "will Adrian Doyle live up to his father?" Well, I for one, being hardly knowledgeable about literature and its finer aspects, felt right at home with the new Holmes.

Same Holmes, same Watson, same old 221B! Hoping remaining stories are as good.." — Nov 21, 2013 11:35PM

"पुरंदरचा तह! यशाच्या उत्तुंग शिखरावरून खड्या आवाजात मुघल सत्तेला ललकारणारा शिवाजी, आज औरंगजेबाचा मिंधा झाला होता… मन हेलावून टाकणारा हा इतिहासाचा भाग. मिर्झाराजांचे व्यक्तिमत्व भारावून टाकणारे तर आग्र्याहून पलायन चित्तथरारक. इतिहासाच्या पाठ्यपुस्तकांनी दुर्लक्षित केलेला हा भाग तपशीलवार वाचून छान वाटलं!" — Sep 07, 2013 07:40PM

Sujeet’s Quotes

“I must say,” Brit shouted at Roy’s back. “I simply cannot wait to watch our strapping he-man champion engage in the gentlemanly art of fisticuffs with those ill-mannered poodles! I bet he’ll slap them silly until they apologize!”

“The sound of Inchgower unzipping his fly in preparation for “the quench” was cartoonishly loud and out of place. “But he went to the trouble to dig up the sound of a fly unzipping,” Tyler whined. “That’s just great. Never mind that there’s no way a Dark Ages blacksmith would even have a zipper.”
― Scott Meyer, An Unwelcome Quest

“Unfortunately, human nature dictated that anything, no matter how pleasant it is, can become hateful if you feel you must do it. Just ask anyone who’s ever entered a pie-eating contest.”

“Like many middle-aged men, Todd was dressing like he thought cool young people dressed. That’s why cool young people change their looks so often. Because if they don’t, they’ll eventually end up dressing like an aging dork.”
