Conqueror by Conn Iggulden
adventurous
informative
fast-paced
4.0
The final book in a five book series. I do not think I have binged on a series in very long time. I started book 1 in mid July and never let up. Conn's storytelling is some of the best out there for HF and war.
The series starts with Genghis Khan at about the age of 10 and finishes here with the adult years of Kublai, his grandson. Of all the children and grandchildren Kublai was the only one to embrace the Chin (Chinese) culture. Kublai began as a scholar but in the end the warrior blood of the Mongols caught up with him and he completed his grandfather's dream of conquering and uniting the Chin as one nation.
A fantastic story, told by a stellar writer.
