Graduated from Bosphorus University's "Tourism Management" department and then University of Marmara's "Business Administration" Faculty, but never intended to be a "business executive", his heart and mind was full of writing and journalism ideals. Beginning with early 1980's, his essays and articles on "popular culture" appeared in several important magazines in Turkey. He was among the founders and first editors of Studyo Imge, a monthly music and culture magazine (now considered as a "cult" in Turkey) in mid-eighties. Between 1987-95, he worked as a free-lance writer and reporter for daily newspaper Cumhuriyet. In early 1988, he became the Editorial Director of Playboy Magazine's Turkish Edition and ran that position until 1990. Between 1991-95, he co-produced and presented a documentary music program to TRT Television called "Rock Diary" and a rock music show "Beyond the Dreams". After 1997, he shifted his career towards the "New Media" and worked as a contributing editor and columnist for ZDNet.com's Turkish Edition. He was one of the executives of the leading Internet corporation "Ixir" between 2000-2001. His strongest ambition has been to accomplish his research on the "anomalies" of the ancient history since the high school days.

With "2012: Rendez-vous With Marduk" he took the first step for a three-volumes series. The book was an instant blockbuster in Turkey, being the "Number 9" of 2003 and "Number 5" of 2004, among best-selling books in Turkey. In November 2004, his first novel, "Talismans Save Thee" was published, and went as high as Number 2 on best-selling lists. It was a modern fantastic fiction on "immortality", an international conspiracy and a 5000 years old ancient secret.

"Fraternis: Lost Books, Secret Brotherhood" is the secont volume of the "Hidden History" trilogy which had begun with "2012: Rendez-vous With Marduk". It was published on April 2006. (Unfortunately, there are no internationals editions yet.)

Burak is 45 years old (born in 1961) and previously published three more books on popular music and culture: "Bob Marley and Reggae" (1985); "History of Rock Music" (1985) and "From May Flower to the Song of Peace" (1986).
