When my history teacher had told me to check out Genghis Khan Birth of an Empire, I thought the title was lame and it would be a book that would waste my time. When I bought it I left the book lying in my book shelf for over 2 years, until I took a look and I started reading the first page. As I started reading it I could not put the book down, and now I have covered more than half of the book. Sometimes I ask my self "Why did the author give this name to such a thrilling and exciting book", until I realized that this is part of a series. I think that the author has written 3 more books for the series and I am willing to get them because this book is teaches you a lot about the ancient mongols by showing you how they faced there problems and also the way the tribes became allies and enemies. 

While I was reading the book, there were a lot of battle scenes. This image shows a good example of how I visualized the fights while I was reading.
