This epic historical saga is set in the 17th Century, when Peter the Great expanded all the way to Asia, to include the melting pot of Siberia, a region where vast riches and great misery were often intertwined. The conquering army consisted of a motley crew of prisoners, volunteers, and others – including Swedes, Bokharan merchants, convicts, Shamans, Missionaries, Dissenters, Outlanders and warlike Dzungars. This is a sweeping epic of passion, politics, glory and gore, with dramatic battles and sieges that characterised the conquest of Siberia.
