A Road Through the Storms of Nanyang

[Era-spanning business warfare + iron-blooded warlord + political intrigue and revenge + powerful family clans + no romance] Read before you dive in.

This is the passionate legend of a warlord who built an empire and made his mark on history.

In 1946, retired veteran general Yang Haotian quietly sailed overseas with his two children and twelve chests of gold. He had hoped to escape the civil war and find a place to settle in the South Seas. But the gold brought disaster, and danger lurked along his escape route from the moment he set sail.

The head branch of his family harbored sinister ambitions, business rivals were sharpening their knives, and colonial powers were poised to act. At home, relatives coveted his estate; abroad, foreign powers watched like hawks. Old blood debts haunted him at every turn.

Everyone thought this retired general, who had laid down his arms to return to civilian life, was nothing more than easy pickings.

Yang Haotian polished his gun, his gaze icy.

“From now on, I call the shots in the South Seas!”
