When his parents separate, twelve-year-old Nick is sent to live in Surrey with a grandfather he barely knows—a man quietly battling cancer and carrying stories Nick has never heard before. As Nick adjusts to a new school, new pressures, and the weight of a fractured family, his grandfather introduces him to the history and heart of Sikh traditions—lessons Nick was never taught growing up. Slowly, Nick steps into the name he was born with: Nanak. Warrior of Peace is an ode to Sikh heritage and a story about family, belonging, and the timeless values that shape who we become.
The tale of the Indo-Canadian male growing up in Surrey is one which has not been delivered in such a manner where despite the details it still reads eloquently; until now that is. Michael Bains does a great job delivering the story which many young Indo-Canadian males can resonate with. This book is tough to put down and can definitely make for a great ‘binge,’ read. Characters in this story are well developed with traits which can be spotted amongst the punjabi diaspora around the world. As you make your way through the pages it’s easy to fall in love with the various characters because at some point in your life that was you or a friend you knew. As a first generation Canadian from a Punjabi household that resided in Surrey, B.C during my teenage years I can attest that the tale told in this book has lived within our community for countless years and continues to cycle through different characters. Attention Reader! You will not be disappointed!
