You can search for The Great Ming: Conquering the World with Quotations from Chairman Mao. I put my heart into that one, and it’s a better read.) (The chapters about the Three Kingdoms period are mainly based on historical sources and Romance of the Three Kingdoms, so some of the earlier plot may be similar.
