I read this in one sitting because the story gripped me from the start. I also found this book comforting. I just knew that there would be a happy ending.
If I had to describe this in one word it would be-'magical'.

Sumaiya Mubeen,
GOODREADS

This book was so fast-paced, and not to mention addictive! I flew through the pages wanting more and more and it did not disappoint. The story was exciting up until the end and I can't wait to read the sequel.

A KINGDOM OF BOOKS

I absolutely loved Enchanted Incognito, I didn't want it to end, each page is gripping and leaves you curious and dying for more. The characters are alive in my head so real and I hope there will be more to come about each of them.

Bio

“Keep reading; it is one of the most marvellous adventures that anyone can have.” – Llyod Alexander.

Drishti Nanwani Tolani, a graduate from the University of Sydney with a double major in English literature and Gender Studies, embarked on her writing journey at the young age of fifteen.

 

Beginning with contributions to her high school newspaper, Drishti's passion for storytelling evolved from movie reviews to a popular fan fiction series on Fanfiction.net. This creative exploration ultimately led to the birth of "Enchanted Incognito," her captivating debut novel.

​

In addition to her novel, Drishti has delved into journalistic pursuits, contributing articles to publications like Indian Link newspaper and Backyard Opera. Exploring diverse genres, she embraces a pseudonym, W.I. Zard, inspired by the memorable nature of names like Lemony Snicket.

Reflecting on her literary philosophy, Drishti believes in the transformative power of a good book to inspire hope and catalyze change in readers' lives.

 

Influenced by literary giants such as Shakespeare, Danielle Steel, Veronica Roth, and Lemony Snicket, Drishti aspires to create novels that offer readers an escape from life's hardships and leave them with a fresh perspective.

​

Currently refining her next novel, a departure from her debut in terms of genre, Drishti invites readers to join her on this new literary adventure.

 

In the meantime, she has also crafted children's picture books inspired by her Pomeranian companion, Loki.

​

As well as a series devoted to her cultural heritage, exploring the Hindu Festivals through pictures and stories.

 

Drishti's commitment to creating meaningful narratives extends beyond genre boundaries, promising engaging stories that captivate readers of all ages.
