The Tale of the Naughty Flying Mountains (a Puffin Chapter Book) Paperback -

Anand Neelakantan says he is often mistaken for an asura, for he too has curly hair! Anand lives in the land of little devas and asuras and chronicles their exploits! You can read about it in his first children's book called The Very, Extremely, Most Naughty Asura Tales for Kids. He is also the writer of many a bestseller, such as: The Rise of Sivagami (Baahubali: Before the Beginning Book 1); Asura: Tale of the Vanquished; Ajaya: Roll of the Dice; Ajaya: Rise of Kali; Vanara: The Legend of Baali, Sugreeva and Tara; and, most recently, Chaturanga (Baahubali: Before the Beginning Book 2).

Anand also devotes his time penning down screenplays for television, such as Siya Ke Ram, Ashoka, Mahabali Hanuman, and columns for The Hindu, Indian Express, the Washington Post and the Sunday Express Magazine. In his free time, Anand, along with his wife, Aparna, kids, Ananya and Abhinav, and trusty sidekick, Jackie the Blackie, battles clumsy and naughty asuras who are always ready with their next mischievous prank!
