Please DO NOT BUY this book. I was searching for real Tripitaka which contains all the chanting of Theravada Buddhism in ceremony, for example: Namaskara Gatha, Tisarana, Pancasila, Ettavatta.. But this book is just another novel with some glimpse of Buddhism. So other stupid new age people who are into spirituality will buy it.
