Eye of the Nomad

A young Jurchen prince, disgusted by the lies and corruption of empire, abandons his title and privilege to live as a simple farmer on the vast Eurasian steppe.

When he risks his life to save a desperate young nomad in trouble, he is pulled into the brutal, honor-bound world of the tribes, and discovers something he never expected: a fierce new family, unbreakable loyalty, and the love of his life.

Together they build a home against all odds. But the steppe is merciless, and the friend he saved carries a deadly secret that could change the fate of nations.

As enemies close in and a woman he cares for is taken captive, Yasotay must choose between the peaceful life he fled to and the warrior he was born to be, all while unknowingly helping to unleash one of history’s most legendary forces.

The first book in the War of Fear trilogy, an epic saga of one man’s Hero’s Journey inside the real birth of the Mongol Empire, blending the raw emotion of Braveheart with the sweeping historical and philosophical depth of Shōgun.
