The story of Genghis Khan and the rise and fall of the Mongol empire is shrouded in the annals of history. Ask anyone to state a few facts about this great Khan and you might be lucky to hear his name pronounced the right way (it’s pronounced Chinggis – feel free to use this information to sound pretentious in conversations). I was much the same way until I discovered a brilliant author who brought the story of Genghis to me in a refreshing writing style. The Conqueror series by British author Conn Iggulden consists of five books under the historical fiction genre (hold that yawn!) and is perhaps one of my favorite finds in recent literature.
