The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is Lo Kuan-chung's retelling of the events attending the fall of the Han Dynasty in 220 A.D., one of the most tumultuous and fascinating periods in Chinese history. It is an epic saga of brotherhood and rivalry, of loyalty and treachery, of victory and death. As important for Chinese culture as the Homeric epics have been for the West, this fourteenth-century masterpiece continues to be loved and read throughout China as well as in Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.

This review is from: Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Vol. 2 (Paperback)
I reviewed the other volume in this unabridged re-publishing of the two volumes, and I highly recommend them. They are certainly must-reads for all.

This review is from: Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Vol. 2 (Paperback)
This book is so old!!! I had a very hard time getting this book to keep my attention. My brother though, and history buff loved it. I was interested in learning about history but i must say this was not for me.
