<p></p><b>THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING CLASSIC SOON TO BE A MAJOR TV SERIES</b><br/><b>'Clavell never puts a foot wrong . . . Get it, read it, you'll enjoy it mightily' </b><i>DAILY MIRROR</i><br/><br/>This is James Clavell's tour-de-force; an epic saga of one Pilot-Major John Blackthorne, and his integration into the struggles and strife of feudal Japan.

Hon ger här en ny och delvis annorlunda bild av vad som skedde, varför och vad vi riskerar.
