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 More Praise for the Novels of Guy Gavriel Kay
"[Read] anything by Guy Gavriel Kay...His strengths are strong characters and fantastic set pieces."--The New Yorker "History and fantasy rarely come together as gracefully or readably as they do in the novels of Guy Gavriel Kay."--The Washington Post Book World "Kay shows why he's the heir to Tolkien's tradition."--Booklist "Kay is a genius. I've read him all my life and am always inspired by his work."--#1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson "A storyteller on the grandest scale."--Time Magazine, Canada

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. River of Stars is a major accomplishment, the work of a master novelist in full command of his subject.Michael Dirda, in The Washington PostGame of Thrones in China.Salon.comRen Daiyan was still just a boy when he took the lives of seven men while guarding an imperial magistrate. That moment on a lonely road changed his life in entirely unexpected ways, sending him into the forests of Kitai among the outlaws. From there he emerges years laterand his life changes again, dramatically, as he circles toward the court and emperor, while war approaches Kitai from the north. Lin Shan is the daughter of a scholar, his beloved only child. Educated by him in ways young women never are, gifted as a songwriter and calligrapher, she finds herself living a life suspended between two worlds. Her intelligence captivates an emperorand alienates women at the court. But when her fathers life is endangered by the savage politics of the day, Shan must act in ways no woman ever has. In an empire divided by bitter factions circling an exquisitely cultured emperor who loves his gardens and his art far more than the burdens of governing, dramatic events on the northern steppe alter the balance of power in the world, leading to events no one could have foretold, under the river of stars.
