    "How lucky we are that Adam Johnson has ignited for us this wild, epic, and utterly captivating skein of human history. His years of immersion in the Polynesian oral tradition and research into the Tu'itonga Empire shimmer through The Wayfinder at every twist, but his rollicking storytelling leads the way." --Jennifer Egan, Pulitzer Prize winning author of A Visit from the Goon Squad and The Candy House " The Wayfinder is a singular achievement. Everything you can ask for in a reading experience, and, because it's Adam Johnson, a little bit more. There are lines in here so pure and direct and lyrical and right, they make my teeth ache." --Stephen Graham Jones, author of The New York Times Bestseller The Buffalo Hunter Hunter "Epic in every sense of the word, this is a high wire act that burns the net below. Epic in that it swings with the same music in great works from Gilgamesh on down. Epic in scope that races across time and space until one is no different from the other. Epic in that we are swept up in a journey where not even the reader returns. In The Wayfinder myth becomes fact, magic becomes wisdom, poetry is in the mouths of birds, and a young girl sets out to remake the world." --Marlon James, Booker Prize winning author of Moon Witch, Spider King

    Synopsis
    A Most Anticipated Book of the Fall: The New York Times , Los Angeles Times , Chicago Tribune "An epic of extraordinary abundance . . . modern and mythological. . . wondrous enough to endure." -- The Wall Street Journal "A powerful and original epic . . . Deadly politics, tragic romance and dangerous sea journeys keep the drama at a spirited boil." -- The New York Times A historical epic about a girl from a remote Tongan island who becomes her people's queen. Talking corpses, poetic parrots, and a fan that wafts the breath of life--this is the world young Korero finds herself thrust into when a mysterious visitor lands on her island, a place so remote its inhabitants have forgotten the word for stranger . Her people are desperate and on the brink of starvation, and the wayward stranger offers them an impossible choice: they can remain in the only home they've ever known and await the uncertainty to come, or Korero can join him and venture into unfamiliar waters, guided by only the night sky and his assurance of a bountiful future in the Kingdom of Tonga. What Korero and her people don't know is that the promised refuge is no utopia--instead, Tonga is an empire at war and on the verge of collapse, a place where brains are regularly liberated from skulls and souls get trapped in coconuts with some frequency. The perils of Tonga are compounded by a royal feud: loyalties are shifting, graves are being opened, and everyone lives in fear of a jellyfish tattoo. Here, survival can rest on a perfectly performed dance or the acceptance of a cup of kava. Together, the stranger and Korero embark upon an epic voyage--one that will deliver them either to salvation or to the depths of the Pacific. Evoking the grandeur of Wolf Hall and the splendor of Shogun , the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Adam Johnson conjures oral history, restores the natural world, and locates what's best in humanity. Toweringly ambitious and breathtakingly immersive, The Wayfinder is an instant, timeless classic.

      I appreciated that the book was packed with care (additional bubble wrap around it) to ensure a safe delivery, It was delivered promptly and is a high quality first edition as described. It arrived in excellent condition. The hardcover book appearance was new as described. The delivery cost was reasonable and is value for the money spent.
