Publisher's summary

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.

Most action packed yet

Unlike the other books, this one feels like it’s just one battle after another. If your into that, you will enjoy this one too

Epic Tale, Beautifully Presented

I wish Conn Iggulden would have a book on every great leader of history. He's my favorite way of learning.

Exceptional work.

When I first began this book, I had a bit of a problem keeping all of the players straight. By the time the end of the book arrived, I felt as if I knew each one with Incredible detail. The narrator did a fabulous job of conveying this very powerful story. As with any good book, the picture created by the narrator of the story in my mind exceeded my complete expectations. It is a brutal story of a brutal people in a brutal time. There is no romance to this story. Be that as it may, it is still a fascinating story about an incredible period of time in n human history.

Great part 3

A well written continuation of this series. Brining it to life and keeping social and historical context in mind. Narrator is same as part 2 and does a good job, but still prefer the one from part 1.

Bloodthirsty Group

Love the story but I was glad when he died. I had sympathy for him at the beginning but he was not someone to admire.

Great Conclusion - or is it?

While not quite on par with the first book (that would be extremely hard to top), I thought this, the third book in the series, picked it up a notch from the second book. All in all, all three books together make for one great story and are not only action packed, but filled with fascinating information about the cultures of the Mongels, Chinese, and Middle East. I, for one, was intrigued with the war strategies that allowed a bunch of goat herders to conquer half the world.

Still Good

The third book in this series, I like each book a little less than the first. Still though I would have to say I would recommend it. The book is entertaining and holds your attention throughout. Narration was good as always.
