Description

This is a new historical novel from the author of the worldwide hit "Peter Pan in Scarlet". Rusti is a Tartar, travelling and pillaging with the legendary Horde of Tamburlaine, Conqueror of the World. He dreams of honour and riches, and is proud to capture his first prisoners - an elephant and her keeper. Yet amidst the death and destruction, an unlikely friendship takes hold in this breathtaking tale. Geraldine McCaughrean is an award-winning author whose vivid imagination and superb writing brings to life past times and faraway lands.
