The Three Kingdoms, Volume 2: The Sleeping Dragon

The Three Kingdoms is the epic saga of loyalty and treachery, brotherhood and rivalry-and the deeds of legendary heroes and villains during one of the most tumultuous periods in Chinese history. This classic tale of brotherhood and rivalry, loyalty and treachery, victory and death will appeal as much to modern readers of Game of Thrones as it did to its original Chinese readers over 500 years ago.

The story of the struggles of Liu Bei and his allies against the treacherous attempts of Cao Cao to steal away the throne as the Han Dynasty comes to a close have captivated readers for many centuries. This second volume introduces Liu Bei's greatest ally, his advisor Zhuge Liang, a master strategist whose plotting and stratagems allow Liu Bei to claim victory in the never-ending battle for dominance in Warring State era China.
