About the book: 2017 / Have you ever wondered: “What if...?” Author of the book: “The Legend of the Knower. Mahogany,” asked the same question. What would happen to the world if there were no such Great Empires as Rome, the Ottoman or the Mongol Empire. There were no such great people as Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan or even Lenin and many, many others. What if these people came too early or too late for their time? What if, during the time of medieval kings and kings, the world plunged into a centuries-long war? Perhaps our world would not be the same as we know it. The author, Evgraf Decu Rorock, immerses the reader in the world of the five Great Empires. Not about those we read about in history, but completely different powers that rose from the ashes. There, the position of the emperors is changeable by the will and fears of the people. And the strong, who reach for the sky, sometimes have to go against their ambitions. The price of life is too high that it is not worth the effort to devalue it. Anyone can try on the guise of a jester; he gets used to this stupid role. Events will overwhelm the reader with their intertwining plot lines. Welcome to a completely different world of heroes, where compassion, cruelty and friendship are so close.
