Silk Road

SILK ROAD takes you into the golden age of China's multi-cultural Tang dynasty. Aided by ghosts, goddesses, dragons, and her own determination, the heroine becomes a courtesan, a musician, a runaway, a wandering swordswoman, a poet, and more. "Larsen has used a dazzling diversity of prose styles to adroitly demonstrate how history is transmuted through the centuries into something not quite true, yet not entirely false...an illuminating and absorbing story." Publishers Weekly Greenpearl, only daughter of a powerful Chinese general, is kidnapped when she is only seven. So begins her perilous journey along the Silk Road. Although her destiny has long been pre-ordained, many adventures befall her before her heart's desire is revealed.
