About the Books
The Conqueror series charts the transformation of Temujin, a boy exiled from his tribe after his father's murder, into Genghis Khan, the ruler who forged the largest contiguous land empire in history. Wolf of the Plains opens on the steppe, where survival depends on cunning and family loyalty. Lords of the Bow follows the united tribes as Genghis turns toward China's Chin dynasty, testing his army against fortified cities. Bones of the Hills pushes the conquest west into Afghanistan and Persia, as his sons come of age. Empire of Silver shifts to the next generation, exploring succession struggles after Genghis's death, as his son Ogedai works to hold the empire together. Conqueror closes the saga with Kublai Khan's rise, carrying the dynasty's ambitions into new territory. Throughout, Iggulden grounds historical events in intimate human drama, exploring loyalty, rivalry, and the corrosive weight of power. His prose moves briskly between council tents and battlefields. Readers who enjoy Bernard Cornwell or Wilbur Smith will find a similarly propulsive blend of action and character here.
