Empire of the Moghul: Ruler of the World

Empire of the Moghul: Ruler of the World
by Alex Rutherford

I am not as thrilled and contended as I was after rreading the first two parts of this series. This book is on Akbar, the most powerful and longer ruling mughal in Tumr dynasty. But surprisingly the author has dedicated the least pages for him. In the same book more than half life of Jehanghir (Salim) and then of Khusrau is also there.

Easily 2 books could have been dedicated to Akbar. Many things has is private courtroom, various battles, relation with first rajput wife, din-e-elahi, his nocturnal country visits etc, much could have been explored.

On the positive side the book still has the amazing narration capability of the author and very nice fictionalization of the history
