Istanbul 1538. Suleyman the Magnificent is at the pinnacle of world power while his family and future are at the mercy of dynastic law. From Paris to Transylvania, Buda to Basra, and the Crimea to India, this is a globe-spanning reconstruction of the life of the most powerful ruler of the 16th century.
Christopher de Bellaigue is the author of eight books, including The Islamic Enlightenment, which was shortlisted for the Baillie-Gifford Prize, and the first volume of his Ottoman trilogy, the highly acclaimed The Lion House: The Rise of Suleyman the Magnificent. He has reported from five continents for The Economist, the New York Review of Books, the BBC and unHerd. He is founder of the Lake District Book Festival.
