Genghis Khan has always been an enigmatic ruler for me. This is book one of The Conqueror series. Fast-paced with crisp writing. Never a dull moment.
Now currently reading the next book 'Lords of the bow“ and it gets better. 🤘

I absolutely loved every minute of this book! A truly great beginning to what promises to be a phenomenal journey. The tale of Genghis Khan looks to be one of intrigue, violence and a hunt for power.
Starting my #Genghis journey. I'm so excited to read this series. #HistoricalFictionFan

I love this book. It was my first foray into historical fiction, and is about the childhood and rise of Genghis Khan. It's the first book of the Conquerer Series by Conn Iggulden. I have yet to dive into the second book, and I really have no idea why.
Amazing book. A must read for people who love war history. It‘s tells us about Genghis khan and his conquests. Written beautifully, I finished the book in a record time. He is an amazing writer. Should check out the whole series as it continues with his descendants. And all the books in the series are as interesting and they never loose their charm. Also check out his Rome and tudors series. Even good for people who are new to this genre.
The first book in the Conqueror Series about Genghis Khan, he certainly ruled a large part of the world. Quite remarkable for the times and the lack of raw materials he had to hand. #ruletheworld
I just love this song and the film it was used for - Stardust, which is based on Neil Gaiman's novel. #junetunz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SC4O9dY6e1c Need to watch the film again, been too long since I last watched it!
While Genghis Khan may not technically have been #kingoftheworld, he ruled one of the largest land empires to ever exist. #characters2017
As a side note, this is a great historical fiction series. Iggulden is a master.
I've literally been too lazy to read this book for a long long time. I finally got myself to read it, and I was pleasantly surprised ! It took me some time to finish it, because of my studies and because it was a bit chunky, but the author really captured the brutality of those times. finished the last 100 pages or so in one sitting
