A new chapter from my book, "The Enchanting Encounter with the East" is available https://www.wattpad.com/myworks/204304532/write/798587690

The chapter titled, The Suspension Bridge Across the Abyss, tells the story of the entangled diplomatic relations between the Apostolic See and the Great Khan of the Mongols in the wake of a disastrous campaign of 1241-1242 against Central Europe. 

I am going to upload it to my site in the near future.
