The climax to a sweeping historical tale of battles, empires, families, relationships, artisans, commerce, leaders, and culture...This story shows the immense depth of cultures long past and fills the reader’s mind with a vast richness, also showing the ways these reach forward to our own times. A highly recommended trilogy
James R. Newcomer, Ph.D. Stanford University
I read this great historical novel with awe and fascination. I mean great in two senses: one, it's a great read that will carry you along with its heroes (and heroines) from a Chinese clan.. and two, it details, battle by battle across the sweep of Asia, one of the great shifts in human history... opens to us the inside story of building what may have been the greatest human empire of all time. Yes, this novel is that important.
Rated Five Stars by BookLife by Publishers Weekly, Manhattan Book Review, Bookish Elf, Seattle Book Review, Midwest Book Review
In the twilight of China's magnificent Song Dynasty of the 11th Century, one family rose from obscurity to shape the fate of empires—and their story was almost lost to time. Until now. Born from the author's own thousand-year-old genealogy, miraculously discovered after four decades of searching, this sweeping three-volume epic spans the 11th to 13th centuries.
THE JOURNEY BEGINS
Here, universal human experiences are laid bare: the bonds of loyalty and the sting of betrayal, the courage to survive and the cost of ambition, the conflicts of faith, race, and desire—all as relevant today and a thousand years ago. At the heart of this saga is Hasan Arslan, a Uyghur master bowyer with striking green eyes, who armed the Song Imperial Guard with unparalleled weaponry. Gifted mystical jade Pixius—dragon-headed, winged-lion protectors—by the Emperor himself, Hasan and his descendants are thrust onto a path of glory and danger. But it is the women of the Arslan family who shatter tradition and forge their own destiny. From the beautiful courtesan Li Shi Shi to the formidable granddaughter Manolya, to the fearless Mei Mei, and culminated in the twin Generals of Spring and Summer—they are the architects of the family's survival.

THREE VOLUMES. ONE UNFORGETTABLE JOURNEY.
Volume 1: Hundred Beam Bridge: The Lions and the Pixius
From the battlefields against Tangut marauders to the inner circles of the Song court, Hasan and his family fight for survival. As they seek their promised sanctuary at the Hundred Beam Bridge, they must ask: Can the mysterious power of the Pixius guide them through war, prejudice, and their enemies?
Volume 2: The Road of Silk and Satin: Silkworm and I-Ching Transformations
Guided by the gold-spitting Pixius and the ancient wisdom of the I-Ching, the family reinvents itself as the Han Chinese Ma clan. Under the leadership of visionary women entrepreneurs, they build an empire of silk, satin, and tea. Yet, as they balance Confucian ideals with the brutal realities of commerce and looming northern conquest, their greatest transformation is still to come.
Volume 3: Entanglements at A Distance: Jinshi and the Mongols
The 13th Century dawns, and the family is split between two worlds. One branch thrives in Song Lin'an as masters of revolutionary gunpowder warfare. The other commands the legendary Grand Pixiu Caravan across the vast Silk Road. When the Mongol storm erupts under Chinggis Khan, both branches are drawn into the heart of a world-consuming conflict. Pawn and player, ally and enemy, they must survive the coming cataclysm. A final, mystical prophecy offers a glimmer of hope, but..

À propos de l’auteur
Ted Marr, an American of Chinese descent, is passionate about his heritage and its history. His astonishing discovery of a 1000-page genealogy, which detailed the lives of four thousand ancestors, and traced his lineage to Uyghur ancestry during the Song Dynasty 1000 years ago, inspired him to write Hundred Beam Bridge and The Road of Silk and Satin.
Ted holds multiple Doctorate and master's degrees in physics, Theology, and Business and works as a Silicon Valley Executive and Entrepreneur in IT. He has taught at several universities worldwide, including the University of Virginia, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Oregon State University, Portland State University, George Fox University, Claremont College, and CGST Hong Kong.

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
