Sinopse

After passing through Ancient Rome with the Emperor series, Conn Iggulden - a great revelation in British historical fiction - began the Conqueror series, which now has its second volume: The Lords of the Bow .

Temujin of the Wolves, the boy born from the plains of Central Asia, introduced to the public in The Wolf of the Plains, became Genghis Khan, a man who must unite the most war-torn tribes in the East. His goal is to create a new nation in the barren plains and mountains of Mongolia. A bloody birth that will bring a continent to its knees. For thousands of years, his people were kept isolated by the Jin Empire, a land of enormous wealth and numerous armies. Its warriors have only the bow, the horse, and iron discipline, born of a land of ice, famine, and death. Stone walls rise above the Mongol horsemen, and Genghis must defeat the ancient enemy or see his people scattered and his dreams shattered. In addition to the ancestral enemy, he must reconcile the discontented groups with his generals, mediate between his ambitious brothers, and deal with his own emotions as he watches his sons grow up. The young warrior has become a victorious military commander: now he must raise his people to greatness.

The Lords of the Bow is a fascinating epic, the telling of an extraordinary story. Blending fiction and accurate historical research, Iggulden recreates the saga of the legendary conqueror on a more human scale, in a plot filled with twists and turns and emotion.
