Travel Guide

The author’s vast knowledge of China has allowed him to give the reader a clear insight to Ancient China and its people. Such knowledge an insight makes for a thrilling read.

As the author states on his website, this novel is a fictitious account of lives in Tang Dynasty (7th-10th Century) China, but is a moral tale which can be applied to other issues such as the tensions between an ethnic minority (the Miao people) and the majority Han Chinese, who have a different language, culture, religion and belief system.
