内容简介 Book Description
The long-awaited third installment of the worldwide phenomenon and number-one international bestseller Tales of the Otori.

Set in an imagined medieval Japan, Book Three is a thrilling - and surprising - follow-up to the previous adventures of Takeo and Kaede. Taking us into the complexities of the loyalties that bind the novel's characters at birth - the fates from which they cannot escape - Brilliance of the Moon goes beyond its transcendent storytelling in demonstrating how we are shaped by forces outside our control and yet must forge our own destinies all the same.

A thoroughly gripping read, Brilliance of the Moon is also the most powerful novel in the series - a beautiful, haunting evocation of a time and a place just beyond the reach of an outside world. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

From the Publisher
We're delighted to be publishing these mini editions of the original Tales of the Otori novels. What we've done is to split each of the original books into two and packaged them with stunning covers priced at £2.50 each and numbered in sequence from volume 1 to volume 6. We've done this to mark the publication of Lian Hearn's fantastic new book THE HARSH CRY OF THE HERON which comes out in September, the following month. These delightful minitature editions (still easy to read though!!) serve as a fantastic introduction to those of you who haven't read Lian Hearn before. And for those who have they're extremely collectable as they will only be available for a limited period. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
