Reader comments
This book is great! I especially like Hook in it. He is brave and smart, and has experienced many exciting adventures with Zhang Qian and Gan Fu. I hate the Xiongnu Chanyu, he always bullies Hu and defeats them. This book helped me understand the history of the Silk Road, and also taught me the spirit of not being afraid of difficulties. I can't wait to read the fifth one!
