Synopsis

Between the valiant kingdoms of the western Realms and the exotic eastern lands of Kara-Tur lies a vast, unexplored land whose barbarian horsemen the "civilised" peoples of the Realms have ignored for centuries. Now a powerful leader, Yamun Khahan, has united the wild Tuigan horsemen into a force mighty enough to challenge the world. Koja, a priest sent by the prince of the small realm of Khazari to meet the Khahan, rises to become his diplomat and blood brother, uncovers a plot against him backed by the empire of Shou Lung, and helps open the way through the Dragonwall for the invasion of Shou Lung. The first book of the Empires Trilogy, told from the Tuigan side.
