No. 1 bestselling author Conn Iggulden takes on the story of the mighty Kublai Khan. An epic tale of a great and heroic mind; his action-packed rule; and how in conquering one-fifth of the world’s inhabited land, he changed the course of history forever.
A scholar who conquered an empire larger than those of Alexander or Caesar.
A warrior who would rule a fifth of the world with strength and wisdom.
A man who betrayed a brother to protect a nation.
From a young scholar to one of history’s most powerful warriors, Conqueror tells the story of Kublai Khan – an extraordinary man who should be remembered alongside Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great and Napoleon Bonaparte as one of the greatest conquerors the world has ever known.
It should have been a golden age, with an empire to dwarf the lands won by the mighty Genghis Khan. Instead, the vast Mongol nation is slowly losing ground, swallowed whole by their most ancient enemy. A new generation has arisen, yet the long shadow of the Great Khan still hangs over them all …
Kublai dreams of an empire stretching from sea to sea. But to see it built, this scholar must first learn the art of war. He must take his nation’s warriors to the ends of the known world. And when he is weary, when he is wounded, he must face his own brothers in bloody civil war.

Uppläsningens varierande volym gjorde den svår att lyssna på. När uppläsaren omväxlande viskar, så att det är svårt att höra ens på hög volym och i nästa mening skriker så att det gör ont i öronen tar det bort mycket av tjusningen med boken.

Boken är toppen men berättaren kass. Han pratar överlag väldigt lågt, men ibland viskar han (!) och gör det helt OMÖJLIGT att höra vad han säger. Jag blir helt galen av all volymjustering som krävs för att lyssna!

The absolute worst narrator I have ever listened to. He totally destroyed this amazing book and made it impossible to enjoy the book. Luckily I have already read it and I was only looking to ”relive” the experience. The narrator is trying to make the reading into some kind of theater but he is completely of note and whispers or yells in a totally incomprehensible mishmash. I cannot stress enough how irritatingly bad the reader was.
