This is the story of a boy named Temujin. As a boy, he inherited the role of leader after his father’s death. As a man, he earned it–by fiercely protecting his people, no matter the cost, and by demanding total loyalty from those he led. His story is one of courage and survival, sacrifice and death. The boy who became the great Genghis Khan would take his people from the brink of survival to near-world domination — and lead the largest empire ever created in the lifetime of one man. Based on both history and legend, Demi’s classic story of Genghis Khan takes readers into a world of battle and victory and shows why Genghis Khan has gone down in history as the greatest conqueror of all time.
