Vasily Yan's historical novel explores the early stages of the Mongol conquests and how the invasion becomes possible amid disunity and internal conflict.

Great Khorezm finds itself under threat from Genghis Khan's army. Will Jalal ed-Din, the son of the Khorezm Shah, be able to lead the resistance? Will the bandit Kara-Konchar manage to save his beloved before the old world collapses? What price do the peoples caught in the path of the invasion pay? And will Genghis Khan ever achieve the immortality he so desires?

The novel was awarded the Stalin Prize for its comprehensive historical understanding of the era, its demonstration of the patterns of conquest, and its theme of unity as a prerequisite for survival in the face of external threats. Today, the book is considered a classic of historical fiction.
