An intense saga of power, ambition, and survival in the Far East’s early days.
Tai-Pan is the thrilling follow-up to the bestselling Shogun, plunging readers into a world of high stakes and ruthless ambition. Dirk Struan, known as the Tai-Pan, is not just a shrewd businessman; he’s also a pirate, an opium smuggler, and a cunning strategist who manipulates those around him to build an empire.
The novel captures his relentless struggle to establish himself and his family as the ultimate rulers of the Orient. Filled with action and drama, the story brims with treachery, conspiracy, passion, and violence, making it a captivating and unforgettable adventure.
As the New York Times puts it, the book is “packed with action ... gaudy and flamboyant with blood and sin, treachery and conspiracy, sex and murder ... grand entertainment.”
