Sharp and packed with humor, King Genghis I deserves a crown. NRG

King Genghis I is a wild, biting satire, blending all-too-real scenarios with a dizzying adventure.

When life is dull and tinged in gray, when you're fired from your job and your girlfriend has just jumped ship-there's nothing like a thrilling adventure in a faraway land to elevate your spirits. Or at least so thought Turan-a New Yorker who travels from the heart of Western civilization to Genghistan-a small, hermetic Asian kingdom, ruled firmly but kindly by an affable, self-appointed benevolent dictator, who like other compassionate dictators is concerned principally with the well-being of his people.

The bond between the two men upsets the kingdom's conventional wisdom, alters fates, and changes Turan from a broken-hearted and gloomy young man to a love-struck hero. Because, apparently, there's nothing like the confines of a spunky little dictatorship to spark a new love.

King Genghis I is the first novel by Jonathan Yalon and his first English-translated book. His previous book was a collection of short stories called Beloved by the Girls. More recently, he published The Last Prince, a historical novel about Cyrus the Great.
