Sinopse
Características

Kai Lung is brought before the court of the Mandarin Shan Tien after his confidential agent Ming-shu accuses him of treason. In an attempt to delay his judgment and ultimately his execution, Kai Lung retells a string of uncanny tales to the Mandarin. He is successful in postponing his sentencing again and again, until finally he is set free, gaining the admiration and hand of the maiden Hwa-Mei in the process. As with the other Kai Lung novels, Kai Lungs Golden Hours is a rich, aphoristic tale masterfully constructed by Ernest Bramah Smith. Sure to appeal to any discerning reader, this text constitutes veritable must-read for fans of Smiths work. Ernest Bramah (1868–1942) was an English author whose notable works include: Kai Lung Unrolls His Mat (1928) and The Secret of the League (1907). Originally published in 1922, this book is being republished now complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.
