"Vivid and highly addictive" - the BBC A strange turn of Fate forces Emperor Taliesin to travel incognito in Jing as Scholar Ping: playwright and boy actress, famed for his sexual comedies for the Jing operatic stage. Convinced that she had lost him forever, Sei Shonagon disguises herself as a man and embarks on a mission for a haunted lute that would solve all her problems. Our story takes place nine years after Voyage to the Dark Kirin - enough time for the Barbarian Armies to multiply, Lord Paisley to finish building the Great Wall, and Takanoha's adopted daughters to grow up and start rattling their sabers. The Marquis of Disobedience is the third novel of the Hoshimaruhon series, a wonderfully funny, sexy, swashbuckling romp through the familiar landscape of Chinese literary classics and Japanese samurai epics, stylishly delivered, as its opening credits promise, "in modern English and in full Technicolor". Rated (R) for Adult Themes.
