Recenzii

James Clavell is a teller of stories. They are complicated and exciting, and you are desperate to know what will happen to his characters because they are like the people you know from your own life and experience, set in strange and sometimes terrible circumstances
Packed with action . . . Gaudy and flamboyant with blood and sin, treachery and conspiracy, sex and murder . . . Grand entertainment
Intensely readable and exciting
A fat, gusty . . . historical novel that will most probably sweep the bookstore windows on the strength of its narrative . . . Seduced by excellent period research . . . [with] scenes that hook the reader who will be drawn into this fantasy world like white fumes into a joss pipe
Unforgettable!
Clavell is, as always, a matchless tale-spinner
A fabulous epic . . . that will disturb and excite you . . . A thrilling and enticing tale of adventure and human relationships
Every five or six years there appears on the horizon a book so vast in scope, so peopled with bold, colorful characters, it eclipses other efforts . . . Such a book is Tai-Pan
Intensely readable and exciting
