• week Keep The cited reviews are enough for our usable notability standards. many of the other checks I use are not appropriate for Indian authors because of lack of coverage. 26th on a specialized list isonly a borderline indication of notability. 26th best seller altogether is another matter.

• weak keep: Reviews in Tribune and Dawn are accessible and both says that the book is 'worth reading', though March 2006 issue of Book Review for Labyrinth is not accessible online. However, google hits does not look bad.--GDibyendu (talk) 14:59, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
