This is a short psychological novel that tells the first encounter between Taishi Ci and Sun Ce at Shenting Ridge during the Three Kingdoms period. The background is the battle of Qu'a when Sun Ce entered Jiangdong in the winter of the second year of Xingping. The focus is not on fighting, but on the political choices of historical figures such as Sun Ce, Taishi Ci, Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong, and Rui Yi.
Reader comments
The writing style of this book is very unique, the text is concise, but it can portray historical figures vividly. I like the author's description of Sun Ce and Taishi Ci very much. It feels very real. Moreover, there are no characters that I hate in the book. Each character has his or her own position and choice, which makes the story richer. However, it's just too short and it ends before I've seen enough!
