Empayar (Empayar: Hikayat Putera Tanpa Nama) ⚔



Assalamualaikum & Hi readers,

It's been a long time for me, not to write in this blog. Been tenggelam di dalam reading slump for months. And alhamdulillah, buku Siri Empayar by Teme Abdullah, helping me 'terapung' kembali and get my momentum again. Alhamdulillah 👐

Got 3 books in these Empayar Series. The first one is Empayar: Hikayat Putera Tanpa Nama, second one is Empayar 2: Hikayat Mukjizat daripada Iblis and the third one is Empayar 3: Hikayat Saka Keturunan Raja. 

In the first part 1, I will tell briefly about the first book - Empayar: Hikayat Putera Tanpa Nama 


Buku ini berkisarkan sekumpulan pemuda-pemudi yang telah terpilih daripada seluruh Kepulauan Melayu yang berada di bawah pemerintahan Kesultanan Aradhanapura, dan dikumpulkan di Madarasah Taming Sari yang akan dilatih menjadi pegawai- pegawai khas di kerajaan tersebut. Madrasah Taming Sari merupakan Madrasah yang berprestij dan diketahui umum. Sepanjang pembelajaran di situ, pelatih-pelatih hanya dibenarkan menggunakan nama samaran which is a series number, given by the Madrasah. For example, Pelatih 1636 or Penghulu 1883. 

Di buku pertama ini, lebih mengetengahkan kisah pelatih tahun pertama yang diketuai oleh Pahlawan 1636 yang mempunyai background agama yang kuat dan merupakan bekas pelajar pesantren di Acheh, namun menggunakan 'keistimewaannya' itu telah untuk kepentingan diri sendiri. Senang cerita menunggang agamalah. Dalam pada masa yang sama, dia juga menggelarkan dirinya sebagai Putera Aradhana Sastra yang infamously telah hilang melarikan diri daripada Istana. 

Banyak konflik dalaman yang telah dilakukan oleh Pahlawan 1636 dengan menggunakan nama agama, namun begitu, dia sentiasa mendapat tentangan daripada Pelatih 8492 yang latar belakangnya masih lagi rahsia, tetapi, dia juga mempunya ilmu pengetahuan yang mendalam mengenai Islam dan sentiasa mencuba untuk memperbetulkan pemahaman Pahlawan 1636 dan pengikutnya. Di akhir buku ini, rahsia latar belakang Pelatih 8492 telah direveal disebabkan oleh peristiwa yang berlaku kepada Pengetua Madrasah dan identiti dia hanya diketahui oleh sahabatnya, Pelatih 6480.

What I like about this book:

1. Obviously, cerita yang ditulis oleh Teme Abdullah adalah sangat unik. Dan bagi saya, sangat-sangat out of the box. 

2. Pengisian berkaitan Islam yang tidak terlalu berat dan relevant with the story and character development.

3. Dan semestinya plot twist yang tidak disangka-sangka dan tidak boleh dijangka.

Namun begitu, it will be better, kalau Teme dapat explain or selitkan lebih sikit berkenaan aktiviti pelajar-pelajar di Madrasah (what is the kursus they need to undergone to be a pegawai) within the conflict between Pahlawan 1636 dan Pelatih 8492.  

But it's ok, the first book easily got 💫5/5 💫 from me. Really recommended.

See you guys again on the next part ✌

Long Gone 🩸

Assalamualaikum & Hi readers, Happy to share my first read for this year with a crime and thriller book, Long Gone by Alafair Burke🥀 This book tells the story of Alice Humphrey, who has been jobless for months, and is offered her dream position as manager of an art gallery by Drew. Drew was employed as a go-between by the gallery's upper management, who are notoriously secretive. Even worse, for her first project, she was bombarded with protests and news interviews over the ‘secret artist’ art piece at the gallery, where the artwork was highly controversial. She made an effort to talk to Drew about it and they arranged a meeting time at the gallery. Unfortunately, she discovered that the gallery was vacant on the day of the meeting—all that was left was Drew's lifeless body and she was quickly put as the main suspect . Many storyline twists occur from the investigation to reveal the truth till the conclusion of the book. For someone who like drama and conspiracy theories, ...

Sekufu

We know, everyone is growing with different way of approach from their parents, different education background, different way of life and working style. Adik beradik pun berlainan perangai and habit, apatah lagi suami isteri yang asalnya ialah orang yang asing. Jadi, untuk mencari yang sekufu to be our partner is not an easy thing. For me, this book describe Sekufu (well written by Aiman Azlan & Dr. Halina Halizah Siraj) is not sekadar "sebab saya Muet Band 4 jadi awak pun kena Band 4". Its not only about your education backgroud. But its all started with communications and how we embraced perbezaan yang ada with our partners by using an effective communication. And its giving me a reminder that marriage is not about "You" & "Me", but its all about "Us" like one of the phrase in this book that said " Konflik yang berlaku tidak sepatutnya berakhir dengan 'saya menang kamu kalah'. Semua konflik mesti diselesaikan dalam kedua-du...
