Book Review: "We are sworn to conquer the world"
Summary: 4 Stars
"We are sworn to conquer the world, and to do so we will fight until the sun falls"- Psin
Except for the name Genghis Khan, not much is now remembered in the popular mind of the largest contiguous land empire in history. At its height in the 13th century the Mongol empire stretched through most of Eurasia from China to Austria. 'Until the Sun Falls' by Cecelia Holland tells the story of the General Psin and the Mongol advance through Russia to the gates of Vienna.
Cecelia Holland deftly intertwines battles, political intrigue and family conflicts into a well written story. It is a very interesting narrative full of action and violence. Told from the Mongols point of view, Holland depicts the brutality of their conquest while still representing their culture sympathetically. A valuable insight into one of the most important chapters in world history, much neglected in the west, and a good story well told.
