St. Martin's Griffin A Kingdom Divided 2012 Edition by Alex Rutherford
````Already an international bestseller, Alex Rutherford's `A Kingdom Divided `continues the epic story of the Moghuls, one of the most magnificent and violent dynasties in world history, and one which bears a close resemblance to the Dothraki in George R.R. Martin's `A Game of Thrones. `India, 1530. Humayun, the newly crowned second Moghul emperor, is a fortunate man. His father, Babur, has left him wealth, glory, and an empire that stretches a thousand miles south of the Khyber Pass; he must now build on his legacy, and make the Moghuls worthy of their legendary forebear, Tamburlaine. But, unbeknownst to him, Humayun is already in grave danger. His half-brothers are plotting against him; they doubt that he has the strength, the will, the brutality needed to command the Moghul armies and lead them to still-greater glories. Soon Humayun will be locked in a terrible battle: not only for his crown, not only for his life, but for the existence of the very empire itself.
