   “Mafia Raj” offers a deep dive, but can be overwhelming. The detail is impressive, yet makes for slow reading. A good resource, if you have the patience.

   Martin presents a compelling, albeit disturbing, picture. While informative, it sometimes lacks narrative flow. Still, a worthwhile exploration.

   Informative and disturbing. Martin’s book is a stark reminder of the power of organized crime. Some parts were repetitive, but the overall impact is significant.

   Mafia Raj is well-researched, but dense. I struggled to get through some chapters. Still, a valuable contribution to understanding South Asian politics.

    Nicolas Martin does a great job of bringing information to light. Book can be little slow on couple of chapters. Overall, a strong informative book.

    A thorough, if somewhat dry, analysis. I appreciated the depth of research, but struggled with the writing style at times. A serious academic work.
