Genghis Khan: From Temüjin to Empire (Audiobook)
Before he was the terror of continents, he was a fatherless boy abandoned to die on the frozen steppe.
Born gripping a clot of blood in his small fist, Temüjin’s early life was marked by tragedy: his father poisoned by rivals, his family cast out to starve, and his young bride stolen by raiders. Yet, from the brutal depths of personal catastrophe and captivity, he forged a will of iron—and built an army the world had never seen.
At over 6 hours of immersive narration, this sweeping biography traces the extraordinary, bloody, and calculated rise of the shepherd boy who united the warring nomadic tribes into a single nation. Follow the relentless trajectory of Genghis Khan as he transforms from a hunted fugitive into the Universal Ruler of an empire stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the gates of Europe.
