Description

The Harsh Cry of the Heron by Lian Hearn is set fifteen years after the seismic events of Brilliance of the Moon. In this elegiac and bittersweet sequel, the union between Otori Takeo and Kaede holds the Three Countries in balance. However, as their daughters grow older, old threats begin to gather once more. Takeo's determination to prevent clan conflicts from ravaging the land is tested by the ambitions of warlord Arai Zenko, the Emperor's challenge to his rule, and the ongoing tensions between the deadly Tribe and the Otori. Meanwhile, Kaede faces her own fears as she draws strength from her love for Takeo. As the forces of darkness close in, the very foundations of their world are put to the test.
