Internal and external pressures, both deeply rooted in history, have compelled China to metamorphose from being a static agricultural society into a diverse modern nation.As a Beijing resident who has lived through the entire opening-up era that set the stage for today’s China, I’ve experienced the scale and thoroughness of economic and social change. From an historical perspective, such change is irreversible. The great sacrifices and efforts of the Chinese people, both through time and in current events, have not been in vain, despite all the negative implications associated with a country growing at, as some would say, an unsustainable speed.Understanding China through Comics includes 4 volumes:Volume 1: The Yellow Emperor through the Han Dynasty (ca. 2697 BC - 220 AD)Volume 2: The Three Kingdoms through the Tang Dynasty (220 - 907)Volume 3: The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms through the Yuan Dynasty under Mongol rule (907 - 1368)Volume 4: The Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368 - 1911)

    This is a story about choices, and the power of knowledge. Three thousand worlds full of gods and demons, with a daoist scroll in your hand, you are able to control the entire universe… At the beginning of time, a mystical meteor came crashing down from outer space and scattered all over the world. A piece of it landed in the Eastern Continent, with mysterious runes carved upon it. Through observations of these carvings, humanity comprehended the Dao and established the Orthodoxy. Thousands of years have passed. A fourteen-year-old orphan, Chen Changsheng, leaves his master in order to cure his terminal illness and change his fate. He brings a piece of marriage vow with him to the capital, and begins the journey of a rising Daoist hero! Note: This is a novel about cultivation, but it also deals far more with politics, philosophy, and education then a typical wuxia fantasy novel. There is more character introspection and interaction than pure outright action, although it has its own share of the same. The maneuverings and motivations of the parties involved in the story form the heart of the narrative. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Having heard the suggestions from our fans, Gravity Tales will now take extra measures to ensure each ebook we produce ends at a place in the series that makes sense and leaves our readers feeling satisfied, yet hungry to read the next installment.
