‘He did not stop to observe his kills, nor to wipe blood off his face. I am a King, he reminded himself. I must be the best among my men, the most fearsome warrior that Solar blood can produce.’
More than a thousand years before Rama, civilization lay fragmented by wars between Aryas and their enemies. From a tribe at the frontlines of this battle, rose the boy king Ikshvaku, the first Manava, founder of the first kingdom in the Indian subcontinent.
This is a story of the first King of our lands – the founder of Suryavansha – of betrayal and loyalty, of dynasties and destruction. A perfect beginning to The Scrolls of Aryavarta.
Who founded the ancient cities such as Prayaga and Kashi? Who established Ayodhya, and when? What were the various Arya tribes that populated ancient India? The Scrolls of Aryavarta seeks to answer these and many other questions, and The Seal of Surya is one story in this universe.
‘A rocking read. True blast from the ancient past.’- Krishna Udayasankar
The Seal of Surya The Legend of Ikshvaku The Scrolls of Aryavarta Book 1 edition by Amritanshu Pandey Literature Fiction eBooks
Author failed to read and comprehend Indigenous Sanskrit or other scriptures and following Western writer blindly.Amritanshu did good job in finding, using the historic indigenous places name and explaining them with meaning. I also agree the way writer mention about male dominating Suryavanshi tradition and liberal Chandravanshi life-style. As Suryavanshi dynasty in Ramayana we barely see balanced or dependable male-female relation. Not many strong female characters reside in Ramayana. Other hand Mahabharata is full with examples of love-marriages with powerful female characters.
Unfortunately there are major other flaws why I couldn’t enjoy this book.
Author seems supporter or Confuse about Aryan Invasion Theory: Instead of studying own indigenous Sanskrit, Prakit, Tamil or other old indigenous literature Amritanshu decided to follow western writer like “Wendy Doniger”, “John Keay” and damage is visible.
The way Amritanshu describe the Suryavanshi or Nomad migration from west of Sindhu seems he is supporter of Aryan Invasion theory, which NOT a single Sanskrit or indigenous scripture or literature supports. On the other hand he also mentioned Suryavanshi founder are born in Kashmir region moved to west of Sindhu and again came back. So some point he seems quite confuse him-self about what he is trying to portrait.
During British invasion of India to establish imperialism in India for first time the hypothetical Aryan Invasion theory come into existence, which today’s date both eastern and western scholars dismissed. Ikshvaku and the solar dynasty existed and spread through mainly bank of Sarayu, Ganga and Yamuna today’s day state of Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh, far away from Sindhu. Ramayana, Puranas or other scripture doesn’t support any such migration.
Origin of Rakshasas: Another area Amritanshu is totally confused. He mentioned Rakshasas are Indigenous to India and that is correct too. Then he mentioned they are decedants of Assyrus. Now Ramayana, even Mahabharata predates Assyrus. Ikshvaku even predate them, so how Rakhashas can be decedent of Assyrus? More than that if they are decedent of assyrus then how are Indigenous to India? Amritanshu seriously need to learn and comprehend indigenous Sanskrit, tamil and other indigenous literature instead of blindly following westerner.
In England British and Scottish are fighting for millennia, but that doesn’t mean one is indigenous and other outsider. Aryan, Rakhasa, Gandharva, Yakshas, Chandravanshi, Suryavanshi they all were Indigenous, but time to time they all had clash with each other.
Rakhasa way of Worship is Different than Aryan: Amritanshu mentioned how Ikshvaku’s second wife hated Aryan way of worship. I am not even sure where writer got that idea.
The Shiva Tandava Shotram we hear in temples or in movie like Baahubali is originally composed by Rakhasa king Ravana. Ravana was a Rakhasa and also decedent of Brahma. He received the boon from Brahma after intense tapasya. If the Aryan and Rakhasa way of worship is different then why they worship same gods as well as decedent of same origin?
Amritanshu need to read his own scripture instead of following Doniger.

Amish I think you should also talk to Rajiv Malhotra ji who is doing a yo man job writing our history from our pov
Nicely built storyline and characters with well researched description of life during that era. I would have liked more direct linkages to present day names of the cities and general geography.
It's a fascinating read
Very well-written book. Has added a good deal of imagination and kept my interest throughout.
Excellent writing! deep history. our Indian history could be so interesting, I never knew! Awaiting more works by this author
