Finished my book

Khan: Empire of Silver: A Novel of the Khan Empire (Conqueror, #4)Khan: Empire of Silver: A Novel of the Khan Empire by Conn Iggulden

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


great sequel to the previous three books, i was a bit worried that book 4 wouldn't be as good as the others due to death of the main character in book 3 but i was pleasantly surprised with the content of book 4.

Iggulden keeps his quality of writing top notch with epic battles, politics, imagery, well developed characters, and a good solid pace. excellent read. Khan has found a place on my list of favorite books ever :)

up next on my list is "The Forgotten Legion" by Ben Kane. I chose this book because he (Ben Kane) appeared on Conn Iggulden's forum, and he seemed to be a bit popular, so I thought I would give his books a try. I checked out his website, he has a series based on ancient Rome (my favorite) and a new series coming out about Hannibal, so I chose the first book in his Rome series, I’ll see how I like it. After reading Conn’s ‘Emperor’ series based on ancient Rome, this book will have high standards to stand up to.
