The Nan Tu - Southern Swallow Book II (The Southern Swallow 2)

"We all lived in the shadow of Kâ€™ai-fengâ€™s ashes now. No denying it. However safe we felt, the world hung by a silken thread." So begins the second book of the Southern Swallow series - The Nan Tu (The Southern Migration) and, like the first book, The Academician, it is told by Kâ€™u Ko-ling, servant to the Grand Tutor, Li Kâ€™ai-men. The Emperor Kao has proclaimed that his court and government will migrate to the south, a progress filled with adventure, intrigue, war and tragedy, thus setting a series of events in play that shaped the Middle Kingdom.

Set on the broad canvas of Sung Dynasty China, The Nan Tu is a tale of love, separation and sacrifice. Yet heroes emerge from the ashes and restoration is within their grasp. From the mountain lairs of bandits to the sweep of the fleet at sea, The Nan Tu will transport you to a world that should have never been forgotten. Still, there are more important things than empires and history. Thereâ€™s love and destiny - the destiny of Li Kâ€™ai-menâ€™s relics and the enlistment of his helpmates to guard over the membrane of time.
