Satyarth Nayak is one of the most popular and richest Author who was born on October 29, 1981 in Cuttack, Odisha, India.
Satyarth was born in Cuttack, Odisha. Spending his growing up years across cities like Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, Chennai and New Delhi, he’s currently settled in Mumbai. Satyarth holds a Masters in English Literature from St. Stephen’s College, Delhi. Working as a Correspondent with CNN-IBN from 2007 to 2011, Satyarth was felicitated with the SAARC Heal Award in 2008. During this phase, his short stories won the British Council prize and also appeared in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series. In 2011, he quit journalism to become a full-time author and screenwriter.
The idea for The Emperor’s Riddles was born out of a random Internet search by Nayak after reading the Dan Brown thriller Angels & Demons to find out if there was something similarly esoteric and mysterious hidden in the history of India. The surfing yielded an obscure but fascinating conspiracy theory involving one of the greatest Emperors of ancient India. Nayak was intrigued by the Emperor’s legend and the imperial secret believed to be still alive and functioning and decided to capture this story. The first draft took about six months and was ready in 2011. The manuscript was accepted by Red Ink Literary Agency and subsequently underwent another round of editing. Nayak received publishing offers from Rupa & Co. and Amaryllis and he eventually signed the deal with Amaryllis in 2012. The book was first released at the New Delhi World Book Fair in February 2014. The Emperor’s Riddles was met with a positive response. The book earned acclaim from other mystery writers, with Amish Tripathi calling it “a fantastic blend of myth, imagination and mystery”, and Ashwin Sanghi describing it as “Intelligent, Intriguing, Imaginative, Intense”. While The Times of India called it a “history meets mystery”, Hindustan Times called it “a gripping tale of intrigue” and lauded the book for its “taut narration and interesting climax”. HT Brunch magazine included the book in its Summer Reading List of 2014, calling it “a celebration of our great Indian civilisation and its scientific genius” and recommending it for those who like “riddles and cool mythological references”. Yahoo praised the book as an “extraordinary tale of riddles”. The Hindu described it as a “concoction of mystery, thriller, legend” and a “national bestseller” while The Pioneer lauded how “history is being explored by the new-age writers like never before”. The New Indian Express declared the thriller “a hit with young readers” and said it “opened a completely different avenue for budding writers to experiment with”. While English Vinglish director Gauri Shinde called the book “an acclaimed thriller” via Twitter, the SpectralHues book review said the thriller’s “shock twist towards the end makes you feel so ignorant” and that “a Christopher Nolan of the West or our very own Anurag Kashyap can pretty well give it a thought to bring The Emperor’s Riddles to life on screen”. Since its release, The Emperor’s Riddles has been likened to the mystery novels of Dan Brown. In an interview with The Times of India, Nayak stated that “the fact that the book’s earning comparisons with Dan Brown is overwhelming” and “If Brown has codes, my book has riddles.” Satyarth’s upcoming thriller sees his central protagonist Om Patnaik in the center of a mystery with mythological overtones.
