Assess Out Of Books Gai-Jin (Asian Saga: Chronological Order #3)

Repetitive and unoriginal, especially when considered as part of the "Asian Saga." Don't read this if you have any basic understanding of Japanese history, have read any of Clavell's other books, or if you care about grammatical accuracy and vaguely unique characterization and dialogue.So what made me consume 1000+ pages of this stuff? Hmm. Well, it was promising in the beginning, I suppose. The subject itself (the decline of the shogunate and the foreign "invasion" of Japan) is interesting, and

History rich, a deeper look into the Western presence in Japan, 1862. Dangerous, lots of blood, samurais, spies, prostitutes - another well crafted masterpiece. The building tension between the Japanese and the foreigners ... couldn't put it down the last half.

I was warned this book isn't as good as other Clavell's novels and I was discouraged to finish it, multiple times. It took me 15 months to finish this book, but I don't regret it.I've seen reviewers to point out the book is too lengthy or that it lacks a main, central hero in the story and that's why it's not as good as the other Asian Saga stories. I have to admit the book definitely is way too long for what it contains, but I absolutely reject the idea that there is no central character.I

I'M FREE!Okay, that's a bit harsh. I was just starting to get a bit sick of it as I had been reading it for so long.As usual with Clavell's Asian Saga, the book is meticulously researched and intricately plotted, so it almost feels like you're actually there. However, again as usual, the plot itself is more a slice of life or sample stretch of events so there is no real resolution. The number of important characters in this book is greater than Shogun, which means you have to get a lot further

a vast colonial epic, less thrilling than others in the series, but still compelling, partially because the author pulls no punches for any of his characters.

So easy to be swallowed up, by the weather and gardens, kind skies and tender rain, best music, poetry, exotic foods, abundant silks and clothes makers, exquisite carp and singing birds, the alabaster-skinned beauties of the court, and of Kyotos Floating World,...without a care in the world except to seek the next pleasure. After conquering China, the traders of Europe are now focused on opening up trade relations with Japan. They are perched precariously on the edge of the Islands in a small
