Review: genghis - L'auteur est un vrai historien qui fait beacoup de recherches avant d'écrire.Pourtant le livre se lit comme un roman. C'est à dire que ce n'est jamais ennuyeux. Nous avons acheté tous les livres de cet auteur.
Review: Historical Fiction, Great Entertaing Read - This book, Wolf of the Plains, is the first in a series of 5 books about Ghengis Khan and the Mongols. I read this book after I had read the next 3 books in the series, Bones of the Hill, Lords of the Bow, and Empire of Silver. There is another book in the series called, Conqueror, which I plan to also read. This historical fiction series is about the Mongols of Asia and the rise and fall of their leader Ghengis Khan. As a fiction Iggulden takes literary freedom to entertain the reader. Most historical narratives, it can be argued, are written through the eyes of the author and present the authors side of the history. At least if it is written as historical fiction, we can accept some variances in actual facts. We can be entertained as we get an education of the rise of Ghengis Khan. Iggulden does a masterful job of piecing this story into an epic read. He goes to great length to describe the harsh life of the plains of north east Asia. When Ghengis' father is killed and his family is ousted from the tribe of wolves, they must eke out a survival under the most dire of conditions. The survival of the family and rise of Ghengis as a uniting force of disparate Mongols to combat common foes is a great read. The brutal life leads to a brutal Ghengis. Expect blood and merciless killing but do not condemn the book or series based on descriptive battles. This was the harsh reality of the times and location. Reading this book out of sequence did not distract from what was revealed in the following books. The reader should read this book first but it is more important to read the remaining books in sequence.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Making of a Leader
*by N***O on 15 July 2026*

Before reading Genghis by Conn Iggulden, I knew very little about the early life of Genghis Khan. This book was a fantastic introduction. Iggulden turns history into an epic adventure, writing with a pace that keeps the pages turning and battle scenes that are vivid and exhilarating. What I enjoyed most was following Temujin's journey before he became the legendary conqueror. His childhood is marked by unimaginable hardship: hunger, bitter winters, betrayal, and the constant struggle to protect his family. Rather than portraying him as an unstoppable warrior from the beginning, Iggulden shows how these experiences forged his character and shaped his ambition to unite the fractured Mongol tribes into one nation. The battle sequences are another highlight. They are exciting, easy to follow, and brilliantly described, particularly the climactic confrontation with the Tartar army. Iggulden has a gift for making military history feel immediate and cinematic. This book left me wanting to know more about Genghis Khan and the Mongol Empire. I'll definitely be picking up the next installment.
