After delving into the world of Ancient Rome with The Emperor series, Conn Iggulden—a great revelation in British historical fiction—guides you on a thrilling journey through the conquests of Genghis Khan and his descendants. The great Mongol leader is brought to life and flesh by Iggulden in a new collection called The Conqueror. The first volume, The Wolf of the Plains, follows Temujin's childhood until he becomes the young commander who would make his name in history. Temujin, the second son of the Wolf Chief, was only eleven years old when his father died in an ambush. The family was expelled from the tribe and left alone, without food or shelter, to starve to death on the harsh plains of Mongolia. It was a harsh introduction to a sudden adult world, but Temujin survived, learning to combat threats both natural and human. Soon, a small army of stragglers joins Temujin, marking the beginning of a new tribal identity. Facing all dangers, the young leader comes to a conclusion that would change all of history: the greatest enemy was the division caused by centuries of war between tribes. To unite his people, Temujin would soon become Genghis Khan. The Wolf of the Plains offers vivid descriptions of battles and war strategies, interspersed with scenes from ordinary life at the time. Blending fiction and accurate historical research, Iggulden manages to create a plot full of twists and turns and imbued with emotion. \"It feels like a blockbuster...

Now the enemy emerges from the western plains of Mongolia. Their caravans are driven back, their emissaries are killed or mutilated, and their attempts at negotiation are repelled. Thus, Genghis and his armies, led by his sons and brothers, embark on a great journey through present-day Iran and Iraq and along the Mediterranean coast. Conquering city after city, empire after empire, through war, fear, and persuasion, Mongol power dominates the entire region. The great khan built an empire greater than any other man. During these campaigns, his sons and brothers vied for favoritism—the right to lead the most successful of his armies and achieve the greatest conquests—in order to be chosen as his successor. Genghis has already proven himself a great warrior. Now, his challenge is to prove himself an exceptional ruler and leader for his people, someone who can coordinate their succession smoothly. His strategy—discovering new territories, exacting tribute from conquered peoples, and devastating resisting cities—is a way to dispel rivalries among the heirs and help determine who will be the next khan. From the fertile lands of the Chin to the arid rocks of Afghanistan, blending fiction and accurate historical research, Iggulden weaves a fascinating epic about history's most enigmatic conqueror, those who feared him, those who defied him, and those whose bones he left behind.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159390634236,"sku":"9788501085528","price":99.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/f63f551c71738cb39952d4889e238883_2857e8af-4035-4c8d-b5f1-e04cea915afe.jpg?v=1781323194"},{"product_id":"imperio-da-prata-vol-4-conquistador","title":"Silver Empire (Vol. 4 Conqueror)","description":"Co-author of the bestselling children's book *A Dangerous Book for Boys*, Conn Iggulden became world-renowned with his *The Emperor* series, which recreates the life of the great leader Julius Caesar, with over 55,000 copies sold in Brazil. A major revelation in British historical fiction, Iggulden returns with *Empire of Silver*, the fourth volume in the *The Conqueror* series, which reconstructs the saga of the Mongol emperor Genghis Khan and his descendants, and has achieved the same success as the previous series. Mongolia, 13th century. After the death of the great leader Genghis Khan, the Mongol Empire goes through a period of uncertainty. Genghis's chosen successor as khan, his son Ogedai, faces the envy and resistance of his older brother, the cunning Chagatai. To help legitimize his power, Odegai builds the gigantic city of Karakorum in the middle of the Mongolian plains and declares it the capital of the empire. However, political gamesmanship is not Ogedai's only concern. The great Mongol empire needs to continue its military expansion, and it will fall to General Tsubodai, a trusted man of the late Genghis Khan, to lead the mighty army to the nation's new leader. Among the soldiers Tsubodai will take with him is the ambitious Batu, the bastard son of Jochi, Ogedai's brother, who was murdered by the general on Genghis's orders. Batu and Tsubodai will fuel a fierce rivalry as they lead the army from the empire's borders with Russia to the cold Russian lands. As he desperately tries to hold on to power and battles his failing health, Ogedai will rely on the support and loyalty of all his relatives, even if this means forming unlikely alliances—such as with his sister-in-law, Sorhatani, a woman determined to provide a better life for her children. But nothing, not even the turbulent political climate, will be able to stop the rise of one of the greatest empires history has ever seen.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159690920188,"sku":"9788501093462","price":99.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/534c1dd253fd5481642e9df2cedbd6c5.jpg?v=1781755215"},{"product_id":"conquistador-vol-5-conquistador","title":"Conquistador (Vol. 5 Conquistador)","description":"The final book in Conn Iggulden's The Conqueror series.
