'I am the land and the bones of the hills. I am the winter.' Temujin, the second son of the khan of the Wolves tribe, was only eleven when his father died in an ambush.His family were thrown out of the tribe and left alone, without food or shelter, to starve to death on the harsh Mongolian plains. It was a rough introduction to his life, to a sudden adult world, but Temujin survived, learning to combat natural and human threats. A man, a small family, without a tribe was always at risk but he gathered other outsiders to him, creating a new tribal identity. It was during some of his worst times that the image of uniting the warring tribes and bringing the silver people together came to him. He will become the khan of the sea of grass, Genghis.

- The first book in the bestselling Conqueror series featuring Genghis Khan and his descendants. The opening book in the Conqeror series, Wolf of the Plains is an epic story of heroism and adventure, of a boy who had to become a man too soon, but whose name would live on through history. The young boy abandoned with his siblings on the harsh Mongolian plains faced almost certain death. But his remarkable survival skills helped him ruthlessly fight off death from starvation and hostile attacks. Hunted and alone, he dreamed of uniting the great tribes into one nation. He would become a great warrior. He would become father to his people. He would be Genghis Khan.
