Touching, entertaining and inspirational. A must read.
- One of the best historical novels I read in a long time. It offers entertainment, emotion, narrative flow, quality and learning.

- In this beautiful historic novel we find inner growth, loyalty, treason, and above all, hope!
Tibet in the 13th century. The so-called Land of Snow, beacon of eastern Buddhism, is under the authority of the Mongol Empire, whose domains extend throughout most of the known world. In this context, the death of the leader of the main Buddhist school urges his followers to begin the search for his reincarnation: a boy who as yet knows nothing of the wisdom within him and the role destiny has in store for his people's future. Meanwhile, a humble peasant family, threatened by the assault of the Mongol army, is forced to leave their home village and set out on a journey with consequences none of them can foresee. A vibrant and moving novel which takes the reader into an environment of legend where the faith of the people and the bleakness of the landscape blend to form a living unity. Start your spiritual journey today!
