About the book: 2022 / Genghis Khan went a great way from an outcast to a powerful ruler who united previously warring tribes under his rule. Only a strong hand can hold the boundless kingdom of the khan, overcoming unrest and strife, breaking the fierce resistance of those who disagree. It seems that only he, the great Genghis Khan, is capable of such a task. But inexorable time passes, and the time comes for a powerful ruler to choose an heir... The Great Khan has found eternal peace, and his vast empire, forged thanks to his pure courage, tactical skill and indomitable strength, hangs by a thread. The sons of the Great Khan entered into a confrontation; each sees himself as his father’s successor and plays his own game. The orphaned kingdom is also uneasy: the ferocious Mongol tribes, no longer watched by the all-seeing eye of Genghis Khan, are again ready to take the path of discord. But now Ogedei, the son of the great conqueror, takes power over the empire of his deceased father, and it seems that there is no such force in the world that could stop its rise. But history will judge everything differently.
