Tamburlaine the Great is a powerful, brutal ruler. His fearless Mongol Horde sweeps over the land like a sandstorm, crushing everything in its path. Tamburlaine's sights are set on Delhi, City of Gems; and Rusti, one of his young warriors, rides out into the flames of battle for his first taste of war.
In the aftermath of the bloody skirmish, Rusti captures an elephant and its rider, Kavi, and slowly he forges a powerful bond with the boy prisoner, who should be his sworn enemy. Then Rusti discovers a long-hidden secret that shatters the foundations of his world, and forces him to decide where his true loyalty lies.
