Under Heaven

Under Heaven book, by Guy Gavriel Kay
By Guy Gavriel Kay

Each night for two years Shen Tai has listened to the ghosts of dead soldiers in the darkness outside his isolated cabin.  In honour of his recently deceased father, a celebrated general who led the imperial army in battle here, Tai has devoted himself to the solitary task of burying the bones left lying by the mountain lake.  But as Tai prepares for his return to a brilliant, dangerous court, he receives news of an extraordinary gift - a gift that could change the empire - or end his life.  Book Jacket
