Book: Yassa by Jo Michaels
categories: Book, Genghis Khan, Mongols, Mongolia, Khans, Temujin, Borte, The Great Khan, Asia, Historical FictionJo Michaels

Women from age sixteen to age seventy, and men from age thirteen to age eighty, have enjoyed Yassa. It's because there's a wonderful love story that doesn't get too sappy, lots of action, and a hard look into the mind of one of the greatest warriors that ever lived. I called it Yassa because of the law Genghis wrote by the same name. Law and following it play a huge part in building the story. I chose the cover because it is soft and pretty, like Borte.
I threw my heart and soul into this book. Many hours of research, fact checking, and a strict timeline were used to create what may be the most engaging book about the man that's ever been written. A lot of what a reader gets is fact. Very little fiction is woven into the happenings. My imagination kicked in when the characters interacted with one another.
Look at it this way: If you hate History, you'll love learning about Genghis Khan via Yassa. You'll have all the facts and a little fiction to keep it interesting.
