Mystery Thriller 'THE EMPEROR'S RIDDLES' -
Over the years, Indian fiction has struggled to come up with something of substance in the thriller/ mystery genre. Finally it looks like there is hope, after all.
Satyarth Nayak is an author, script-writer & journalist based in Delhi, holding a Masters Degree in English Literature from St. Stephen's College, Delhi. His first book clearly reflects his interest and understanding in esoteric. With the success and acclaim that his first book has already garnered for him, we can hardly wait for more from our own Dan Brown.
After devouring the debut book from the author Satyarth Nayak, one can only imagine what a bright future lies ahead for this young author and the Indian readers. When one opens a book with recommendations from Amish Tripathi, the expectations are bound to be high. And the book does not disappoint at all! The Emperor's Riddle has an intricately woven plot which keeps shuffling between uncovering a mystery with its roots buried somewhere in the past and the forgotten corridors of history of Buddhist era. Often is the case with the books like these, they run the risk of being just another one of those western plots rehashed for Indian audience, and here is where Satyarth manages to completely catch you unawares. With history, mystery, sci-fi and philosophy all seamlessly woven into a plot, this is one book you will find hard to put down.
