A review by guybrarian133
Lungo la via della seta. Un romanzo della Cina dell'VIII secolo. by Jeanne Larsen

4.0

I did not expect my interest in Chinese history (and the Tang Dynasty era in particular), long-lasting general fascination with myth and legends from around the world, and recently revitalized interest in fantasy to all come together in only one book. But lucky me, here I am. Historical fiction, folk Daoism and Buddhism, and Chinese mythology combine here beautifully in a tale that was so rich and such a delight to get fully absorbed into that even before I was able to return my finished library copy, I was already looking to purchase a copy of my own to enjoy and get lost in again and again.
