The first book of Conn Iggulden's historical fiction series about Genghis Khan is on sale for $0.99 at Amazon:
Genghis: Birth of an Empire
Quote:
Genghis Khan was born Temujin, the son of a khan, raised in a clan of hunters migrating across the rugged steppe. Shaped by abandonment and betrayal, Temujin endured, driven by a singular fury: to survive in the face of death, to kill before being killed, and to conquer enemies who could come without warning from beyond the horizon.
Through a series of courageous raids, Temujin’s legend grew until he was chasing a vision: to unite many tribes into one, to make the earth tremble under the hoofbeats of a thousand warhorses, to subject all nations and empires to his will.

I haven't read this series, but I very much enjoyed his series on Julius Caesar, Emperor.
