Dear Customer,
This January, ACK Media brings you a diverse collection of treats to start the new year.
For those suffering from winter blues, Konark, The Temple to the Sun is the perfect antidote. Com-
bining impeccable research with gripping storytelling and fabulous artwork, this is the latest in theseries which celebrates places of historic interest and the stories behind them.
In addition, we have the bestselling Valmiki Ramayan in a fresh Hindi translation.
Tinkle starts the new year with a new series, which celebrates the creative geniuses who contribut-
ed to making this wonderful magazine. Tinkle collection Comic Genius: Ram Waeerkar is a tribute
to Ram Waeerkar, who has illustrated many Amar Chitra Kathas and Tinkles. It is a recognition of
his contribution to the development of the comic genre in India.
Brainwave turns to maths in the cold weather, working up a fine time-travelling, earth-measuring
sweat with its new geometry-themed issue.
The January issue of Tinkle Digest is in a very new form, with loads of fresh stories, puzzles and
comics.
We wish all of you a wonderfully happy New Year, and look forward to sharing some of the mar-
velous new books we have planned for this year.

KONARK
TEMPLE TO THE SUN
Author

ISBN : 9788184825978
Size : 24.13 x 17.78cm
Pages : 32
Category : ACK Single - Epics and Mythology

Description : As dawn breaks, Surya the Sun God, leaps
over the horizon in his chariot, pulled by seven radiant horses.
As he rises into the sky he spreads light and warmth all over the
world.
The great Ganga king, Narasimha Rao, commissioned 1200
artisans to recreate this scene in stone.
The Konark Sun Temple is a place where the lines between fact,
fiction and folklore have blurred over time. Amar Chitra Katha
interweaves the history of the 13th
century monument with some
of the mythology associated with it.

Description : Sage Valmiki was overcome with grief and
anger when he saw the cruel killing of one of a pair of Kraun-
cha birds. In his anguish he cursed the hunter. To his own sur-
prise the curse came out in the form of a beautiful verse. Thus
was born the sloka with which India's greatest epics were writ-
ten. Valmiki himself wrote the Ramayana in 24000 verses.
The Hindi translation of the Amar Chitra Katha based on
Valmiki's Ramayana brings to life the much loved story of Ra-
ma and his search for truth and righteousness.
