Book Description
Despite the recent overthrowing of the tyrannical sultan, the reign of the new sultan, Baltor Elysian, may soon be over. After all, Baltor has simultaneously inherited throngs of powerful enemies, both foreign and domestic, who wish to command-and-conquer the tattered Sharia Empire. The first-of-many imposing threats is the massive army that has been traveling, by land and sea, for the Empire's Capital City named Pavelus--now only a handful of weeks away from their destination. This bloodthirsty army outnumbers Baltor's forces three-to-one, possessing more than one hundred and twenty thousand elite soldiers. They are led by none other than the younger brother of the previous sultan, who wants his property back no matter the costs--Emperor-Sedious Vaspan the Terrible. Will Baltor be able to strategically unite-and-train his horribly outnumbered people and eliminate every last enemy--including those chaotic-evil denizens who can magically teleport from other words or dimensions like Hell?? Read the sequel in this Epic Fantasy Trilogy to find out not only this "mysterious answer"...yet many, many more!

Pages : 276
Book Description
The historian and author of Strolling Through Istanbul presents a detailed portrait of the fifteenth century Ottoman sultan, revealing the man behind the myths. Sultan Mehmet II—known to his countrymen as The Conqueror, and to much of Europe as The Terror of the World—was once Europe's most feared and powerful ruler. Now John Freely, the noted scholar of Turkish history, brings this charismatic hero to life in evocative and authoritative biography. Mehmet was barely twenty-one when he conquered Byzantine Constantinople, which became Istanbul and the capital of his mighty empire. He reigned for thirty years, during which time his armies extended the borders of his empire halfway across Asia Minor and as far into Europe as Hungary and Italy. Three popes called for crusades against him as Christian Europe came face to face with a new Muslim empire. Revered by the Turks and seen as a brutal tyrant by the West, Mehmet was a brilliant military leader as well as a renaissance prince. His court housed Persian and Turkish poets, Arab and Greek astronomers, and Italian scholars and artists. In The Grand Turk, Freely sheds vital new light on this enigmatic ruler.
