Brilliance of the Moon

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.
