Empire of Silver
Empire of Silver | Conn Iggulden
5 posts | 10 read | 3 to read
The Great Khan is dead--and his vast empire, forged through raw courage, tactical brilliance, and indomitable force, hangs in the balance. Now, with the sons of Genghis Khan maneuvering for supremacy, the very qualities that united the fierce Mongol tribes threaten to tear them apart. Genghis's tough and canny heir, Ogedai, is on the verge of becoming the new Khan. Inexplicably, Ogedai has delayed his coronation to complete a project many deem a folly: the building of Karakorum, a magnificent city amid the wild plains. His decision emboldens his arrogant brother Chagatai to violently challenge him, leaving their noble sibling Tolui caught between them. Yet even as they clash, the Khan's armies extend his reach farther than ever before, into southern China and across the rugged mountains of Russia to the vulnerable heart of Europe, where the most courageous warriors the West commands await the coming onslaught.

This was a much better choice for #Tajikistan than the other book. Iggulden‘s books are always meticulously researched, well-written, and interesting. While Genghis Khan and the Mongols do get a lot of page time when it comes to nonfiction, their empire doesn‘t seem to get a lot of historical fiction love and I find the culture and time period fascinating. #readingasia2021 (3 books to go for the challenge!)

BarbaraBB You‘re racing through those final countries at the moment! 2y
DGRachel @BarbaraBB UAE is up next in audio and I think I‘m going to listen to my book for Timor-Leste instead of reading the print copy. I don‘t have audio choice for Yemen, though, so that will be a later in the month read. 2y
BarbaraBB What will you read for Yemen? 2y
DGRachel @BarbaraBB I have a digital copy of A Land Without Jasmine. I do have a note that Salmon Fishing in Yemen is available on audio, so I may switch to that one. 2y
Librarybelle You‘re so close!! 2y

This was a fascinating conclusion to a great series. I'm looking forward to reading more about Genghis Khan, and Central Asia in general.

This is the fourth book in the Ghengis Khan series.
The tale of the Khan Dynasty has taken over my life... I find myself dreaming, talking and (of course) reading about this glorious (virtually) true story. It just gets better and better.

Just started the fourth book in the Ghengis Khan series by Conn Iggulden. Arrows, Gers and horses that travel thousands of miles. The adventure continues.
