I'd like to recommend to you, a series based around the life of Genghis Khan. It's "historical fiction", written by a terrific author CON IGGULDEN, The first book in the "Conquerer Series" (of 5 titles) is called "Wolf of the Plains". They are interesting, exciting, give great characterisation and are built around the strue stories. I love them (as I do the later "Emperor Series" on Julius Caesar). I really look forward to reading them, as they hold your attention so well. Give them a try - I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
