About this product
Product Information
"Li Kao may have a slight flaw in his character but the book has none. I recommend it unconditionally and I predict Barry Hughart has quite a future as a fantasy writer."--Anne McCaffrey When the children of his village were struck with a mysterious illness, Number Ten Ox sought a wiseman to save them. He found master Li Kao, a scholar with a slight flaw in his character. Together they set out to find the Great Root of Power, the only possible cure. The quest led them to a host of truly memorable characters, multiple wonders, incredible adventures--and strange coincidences which were really not coincidences at all. And it involved them in an ancient crime that still perturbed the serenity of Heaven. Simply and charmingly told, this is a wry tale, a sly tale, and a story of wisdom delightfully askew. Once read, its marvels and beauty will not easily fade from the mind. The author claims that this is a novel of an ancient China that never was. But, oh . . . it should have been!

This is a very nice book! It was printed and bound in the UK in 1971 and it looks like it’s been taken care of. A little pricey, but well worth it. Jonathan Edward’s essay and observations on The Trinity are without a doubt in my mind the best explanation we can have as human beings. He’s not 100% right in his findings, but no one is with such a mystery. I am very glad I was able to snag this book. It’s rare to find it in a vintage print like this. Thanks for the fast and nicely packed shipping.
