About Khan: Empire of Silver by Conn Iggulden

Set after the death of Genghis Khan, this historical novel follows the struggle over who will lead the vast Mongol empire. His sons and grandsons contend for power even as they push the empire’s reach into southern China and across Russia’s steppes and mountains toward Europe.

Ogedai, Genghis’s designated heir, delays his coronation while overseeing the building of Karakorum, a city on the plains. His decision sharpens tensions with his brother Chagetai, while Tolui and Tolui’s wife, Sorhatani, are drawn into the conflict. Readers interested in Mongol history, dynastic rivalry, and historical fiction will find a story centered on succession and the challenge of holding an empire together.
