All Men Are Brothers

<p>This translation of a Chinese classic (14th Century) is the epic tale of a band of patriots in China during the latter part of Sung Dynasty and is considered by most to be one to the three or four greatest novels in Chinese literature. Shui hun chuan (water margin chronicles) is the adventure of a band of 108 outlaws (105 men and 3 women) struggling to help the Emperor rid himself of the despotic prime minister. Like Robin Hood, the bandit kings refer to themselves as the gallant fraternity. They come out to harass the authorities and to attempt to solicit followers to overthrow a corrupt government in the name of the Emperor. Chocked full of ghosts, innkeepers who make hamburgers of their guests, giants of superhuman strength, beautiful women in distress, wily intellectuals and crafty merchants, this is a timeless tale of love and adventure.</p>

<p>One of the Four Great Novels of China about martial arts and brotherhood based on 108 virtuous warriors in feudal China who joined forces to rescue their country from corruption and injustice. This 700-year-old historical novel contains real-life characters, and describes battles and other events that actually took place. However, to spice up the story, the author tells the reader that the 108 warriors were reincarnations of the former inhabitants of 36 stars and 72 planets of the Little Dipper, and that the leader of those warriors was from Polaris.</p>
