Publisher Description

Best-selling author Conn Iggulden has earned sweeping critical acclaim for his Genghis Khan series, which captures the essence of the legendary warrior as no previous novels have. In this breathtaking volume, Genghis must act when trouble brews west of the Mongolian plains. Dividing his army and using his sons as generals, he sets out to accomplish two important goals-conquer those who resist, and determine which son should succeed him.

"i found this book to be surprisingly enjoyable. by just the typeface on the cover, i had judged it to be grishamly predicatable and over-dramatic, with non-interesting writing. why did i buy it? because i finished my book too quickly on my last trip and the schipol airport has a lot of english books, but most of which i have already read or have zero interest in. i'm happy to report that i was quite wrong about this one, and i have already checked out the first book in the series from the library."

    " I have read all of the Caesar and Genghis series. I continue to be rewarded by Iggulden's masterful writing. I liked this book the least of the three Genghis books. I think I was overwhelmed by the never ending wars and killing. The Arab factor was what really made this book come alive for me. What an amazing period of history. "

    " This is the 3rd book in the Conqueror series about Mongol conquest and I was a bit disappointed. It carried on the theme of the previous 2 books but that was the issue, just more of the same. I will read book 4 but I am going to take a break from the series for a bit. "

    " It's a good thing this was a trilogy as this book was when I started to get bored. It seemed that the larger Genghis' empire became, the smaller a character he was in his own story. This book was more about the people around Genghis than Genghis himself. "
