    <body><![CDATA[I only recently learned that Pearl Buck's The Good Earth is a trilogy. I re-read The Good Earth recently, then moved right into this one which picks up exactly where the other ends, after the death of the first book's protagonist. These are great reads. I love books from or about other cultures. ]]></body>

    <![CDATA[Cover Illustration: Satya Utama Jadi<br/><br/>Wang si Macan makin berkuasa. Dengan penuh nafsu dan didorong oleh ambisinya yang besar, dia memperluas daerah kekuasaannya, demi cita-citanya untuk menjadi Kaisar Cina. Dengan sopan, dengan akal, dan kalau perlu dengan membunuh siapa pun yang menghalanginya.<br/><br/>Tapi kekuasaan, harta berlimpah, serta ribuan serdadu dan rakyat yang taat padanya tak membuatnya puas. Ada yang hilang dari dirinya---sesuatu yang rasanya takkan pernah bisa diraihnya kembali sejak ayahnya mengambil Pear Blossom, gadis yang dicintainya, sebagai gundik ayahnya.<br/><br/>Lalu dia menemukan wanita itu. Wanita cantik menarik yang tak jelas asal-usulnya, bekas gundik Leopard, kepala penyamun yang mati di tangannya. Wang si Macan tergila-gila pada wanita itu. Dia tak peduli lagi pada ambisinya. Padahal wanita itu berhati culas seperti serigala....<br/><br/><br/><br/>Wang si Macan adalah buku kedua trilogi:<br/><br/><br/><br/>Bumi yang Subur<br/>Wang si Macan<br/><br/>Runtuhnya Dinasti Wang]]>
