Book 1 of the Moghul series, part of my about India / Indian authors reads this year. Growing up in India, Moghuls form part of our History syllabus. However, the information contained in those books is quite superfluous and very biased. Hence, it was refreshing to read a third party account of the Moghuls. ( )

This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.
Finally got around to finishing this book. It took me several attempts to get into it. The subject matter was so interesting to me I thought this would be a great read, but alas, the author just didn't pull it off. Reading this was like wading through mud. difficult and rather boring. Pity as the historical background is rich fodder for a novel. ( )

First words
In a small dusty fortress in Central Asia in the summer of 1494, the baked-mud battlements, grey as elephant's hide in daytime, were pinkening before Babur's eyes with the sunset.
