A novel of the thirteenth-century Mongolian warrior, and the women who surrounded him, that offers “a panoramic view of the charismatic leader” (Library Journal). In 1167, in the harsh homeland of Mongol tribes, a child was born who was to change the course of human history. His father named him Temujin, but the world knows him as Genghis Khan. Set amid the barbaric splendor of the Mongol hordes, Ruler of the Sky tells the tale of the warrior who forged one of the greatest and most terrifying armies the world had ever seen, and conquered the world from Peking to Persia. Not only is this the story of Genghis Khan, it is also the story of those who were closest to him, especially the women who played such an important role in his life. From the windswept plains of Mongolia to the opulence of the Chinese court, Ruler of the Sky is unforgettable.

From something as simple as the wingbeat of a butterfly to the fascinating world of quantum physics, this poetry and prose book is embroidered with colourful threads of experiences that decorate the empty fabric of existence. The most important inspiration for this book is the dark thread of grief—ecological grief. This poetry and prose book follows on the parallel, the Odyssey of Love­‒‒the most powerful but volatile energy, dreamed into existence by the state of Nothingness. The Fall of Love from the void causes a cosmic explosion (Big Bang) wherein Love disintegrates into infinite pieces. The broken pieces of Love take the form of infinite universes and realities. In one of the realities, the fragments of Love form our Universe. And in a cosmic dawn, Love burst into being in all life forms on Earth. The parallel odysseys unravel as Love evolves in the form of humanity and seeks to reclaim its power. Thus, humanity is Love personified, and each one of us is the manifestation of Love. In this book, Padma Angmo sensitizes readers to the devastating effects of habitat and biodiversity loss on both local and global ecosystems. As an indigenous writer from Ladakh, she amplifies marginalized voices by addressing the impact of environmental degradation on her community. She prioritizes mental health and healing as a crucial foundation for resilience and collective global climate action. Ruler of the Sky invites the readers on a healing journey to reclaim our power. This collection of poetry and prose is divided into six parts—  Before the Big Bang  The Big Bang  Equilibrium  The Big Crunch  The Big Enigma  The Big Freeze
