This was an absolutely fascinating look into the life of Genghis. It was really a page turner. I am reading the second one now and look forward to the third.

Excellent Book! I was rivoted the whole time! I can't wait to read the next in the series, and plan on getting the Emporer series as well! Very well written! Sometimes it felt like you were right there with Temujin!
I think I may have found another favorite author!!!!!

If you're looking for a fast paced well written historical novel, you can't beat Conn Iggulden. This novel of Genghis Khan reads quickly--you hate for it to end.

Excellent book. Very well written. The plot moves along quickly and with just the right amount of detail. Mr Iggulden does not drag out the battle scenes with lots of gore. Characters are well developed and often multidimensional. Will read more in this series.

This a fantastic read. It has all the ingredients for a page-turner along with a big heaping of historical fact blended with intriguing characters who are vividly colored and mixed into the story in just the right amounts. Not only is this great historical fiction, it's great fiction of any genre.
