About this title

Review:

Praise for River of Stars

"Game of Thrones in China."--Salon.com

"From whatever angle you approach it, River of Stars is a major accomplishment, the work of a master novelist in full command of his subject. It deserves the largest possible audience."--The Washington Post

"Kay has the uncanny ability to depict the grand sweep of historical events through the eyes of those living through them...What's even more amazing is how through his careful rendering of character and environments we are drawn into this history...River of Stars is an exceptional piece of work."--Seattle Post-Intelligencer

"With River of Stars, Kay transports readers to a dazzling court and the ravages of war, with language almost impossibly multilayered in its nuance and tone, offering a series of insights that exquisitely build on each other...one of Kay's richest creations to date."--The Huffington Post

"River of Stars is the sort of novel one disappears into, emerging shaken, if not outright changed. A novel of destiny, and the role of individuals within the march of history, it is touched with magic and graced with a keen humanity."--Globe and Mail
