Mongolia, 1260. The only daughter of Khaidu Khan and descendant of Genghis, Khutulun grows up among fifteen brothers—and soon outmatches them all.
A warrior, strategist, and undefeated wrestler, she vows to marry only the man who can defeat her in combat. None ever do. As the Mongol steppes tremble under Kublai Khan’s rule, Khutulun rises to defend her people.
Her victories make her a legend, admired by allies and feared by enemies. But when her father names her as successor, the most dangerous challenge comes not from the battlefield, but from a betrayal within her own bloodline.
A sweeping historical adventure, DAUGHTER OF THE STEPPES brings to life the indomitable spirit of a woman who defied an empire.
