About book Raiders From The North (2009)

An interesting period in history with a descendant of Genghis Khan, Babur, trying to forge his own empire. Barbur's path is not plane sailing and there's plenty of downs as well as ups. That makes an interesting tale and at times you wonder what drove him on. I preferred Conn Iggulden's books on Genghis Khan but Empire of the Moghul was still good. It didn't quite capture the people in the way Conn Iggulden's books do, but it's still a good read. It's worth understanding how one man never gave up on his dreams after many setbacks. The period is also interesting as cannon start to creep into the tale. What an absolute brilliant book..!!Personally I have always enjoyed history and this is what I have always been looking for. Dive into the lives of the Emperors as they lived and breathed moulding history as they walked. You start living them as you turn pages. Though one understands that many tales and characters may still be fictitious but still it's a delight to read as events of the history are created. Must say..Bravo Alex..!! You notched up my interest in medieval India history. Looking forward to completing the series.
