Review

"The last time I was so taken with a spellbinding safari was when I read Gone With The Wind."— Los Angeles Times.

“Clavell’s biggest triumph yet…storytelling done with dash and panache...a rousing read.” —*Washington Post

“Fiction for addicts…extravagantly romantic…a book that you can get lost in for weeks…staggering complexity…not only is it as long as life, it’s also as rich with possibilities.” — New York Times
_
“Tremendous entertainment…a seamless marvel of pure storytelling_.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer

“A mesmerizer…spellbinding.” — Los Angeles Times

“Breathtaking…only terms like colossal, gigantic, titanic, incredible, unbelievable, gargantuan, are properly descriptive.…Clavell has made himself the king of super-adventure thrillers.” — Chicago Tribune Book World*

From the Paperback edition.

Product Description

  • The setting is Hong Kong, 1963. The action spans scarcely more than a week, but these are days of high adventure: from kidnapping and murder to financial double-dealing and natural catastrophes–fire, flood, landslide. Yet they are days filled as well with all the mystery and romance of Hong Kong–the heart of Asia–rich in every trade…money, flesh, opium, power.

From the Paperback edition.
