Ricardo, duque de York, ha sido asesinado: sus ambiciones de reinar han desaparecido como nubes tras un temporal, y su cabeza, decapitada, se exhibe sobre las puertas de la muralla de York, macabro recordatorio para todos aquellos (More) que piensan enfrentarse a los Lancaster. Mientras tanto, el rey Enrique IV está todavía preso y la reina de los Lancaster, Margarita de Anjou, se dirige al sur con su séquito de guerreros, un ejército que hasta la fecha parece implacable. Pero la muerte del padre ha desencadenado la ira de los hijos. Así, Eduardo de March, ahora duque de York, se autoproclama rey legítimo de Inglaterra. Nuevos bandos se forman y se deshacen como copos de nieve; mucha sangre va a derramarse y multitud de venganzas se forjan hasta el momento en el que un rey se enfrente al otro. Porque dos hombres pueden competir por una corona, pero solo uno podrá tenerla.

The Conqueror series is a series of novels by Conn Iggulden about Genghis Khan and his successors, set during the time of the Mongol conquest of the 12th and 13th centuries.

Iggulden, Conn - Emperor. The Gates of Rome - Language: English, Novel - Format: ePub
The first book in the series introduces two young Romans: Gaius (Gaius Julius Caesar), son of a senator and born of noble-blood, and blood-friend Marcus (Marcus Junius Brutus), son of a high-class courtesan (Servilia). The novel (More) tells of the harsh realities of life in Ancient Rome, not only for the nobilitas but also for the slave population, who revolt and kill Gaius's father during a siege of the Caesar estate. As the two boys begin their careers (Gaius as a senator and Brutus as a legionary), a political war is being played out in the senate between two powerful Generals: Cornelius Sulla and Gaius's uncle, Gaius Marius. Iggulden drifts entirely away from historical accuracy, especially where the war between Marius and Sulla is concerned where pure fantasy is entered into and makes huge compromises. For example, in his book Caesar is the only child, when actually he had 2 sisters.
