#BooksThatInfluencedYou
Day 17:

I have been busy with some shelves so belatedly, my recommendation for the fascinating (hi)story of the #Mongols and their early khans.

It introduced me to an amazing part of Mongolia's and #China’s, and subsequently #India's as well as Europe's history: the #ConquerorSeries.

Irish author #ConnIggulden is a master storyteller.

I like approaching new regions and epochs of #history through well-researched #HistoricalNovels.
In the case of #TemΓΌjin who became #Genghis Khan and his heirs, I can recommend the fascinating 4 books of #ConnIggulden's #Conqueror Series: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conqueror_(novel_series)

You can check them out at the #InternetArchive, which could use some donations in its legal battles against the media multinationals.

@Ferifyre I'm currently reading Conn Iggulden's Emperor at the Gates of Rome, which is historical fiction of his life. Fun reading so far, but Rome is not my area of expertise so it's all new to me. #author #ConnIggulden #roman #juliuscaesar
