About this audiobook

At genghis khan’s birth divine signs indicated he would consolidate the scattered mongol clans into one nation and become the conqueror who ensured that the empire of mongolia ruled the world. By 1224, he had founded the empire of mongolia, a nation that stretched from the pacific to caspian sea. Genghis khan’s fearsome reputation of being a ruthless invader preceded him.

Yet one of his captives taken from the land of the indus river holds a mysterious power over the tyrant.

What gives her this power? Does she know a secret that compels the formidable emperor to reveal his mortality? Is her magical spell strong enough to make it into a weapon that can bring the khan to his knees?

 

Readers will discover:

•                  The strength of loyalty and the sacrifices genghis khan made to unite his people

•                  The code of yassa, the law that brought unity to a diverse empire

•                  The beauty and resilience of the mongolian steppes, from the unforgiving elements to the nomadic way of life

•                  The universal themes of family, leadership, and vision that define genghis khan’s story

This was an individual who established an empire that survived for more than a century after his demise, and it did so to such an extent that it was the longest continual empire to have ever been created in the history of the world.

A wonderful battlefield commander, a prime tactician, he had a need to conquer the world that shaped this man into a fearless leader that would ultimately go on to shape what we now know as the modern world.

This might be one of the best short histories I have read to date. It went far beyond the normal tale of Genghis Kahn and related the entire history of the Mongol rise to power and their decline. I never realized how long it actually took them to conquer the vast territory they did. There are enough facts, maps and information in this book for a solid basic knowledge of the Mongols history. It is well written has a large number of footnotes.

Very interesting and informative read on this historical figure. It leaves you wanting to find out more. Maybe lacking in detail for some, but it does what it set out to do.
