description: A towering world-city covers almost every acre of  every continent. Seven high-tech fiefdoms, ruled  by seven lords united in unimaginable power. But  now the wheel is broken. the Seven are divided at  last. Armed rebellion has broken out in Chung  Kuo's few remaining open spaces; on the vast grain  farms, within the chilly Mars colony... and along  the proud spine of the mountain chains, where hardy  guerrillas scoff at the gunships of the T'ang. In  desperation, the Seven plot their final solution  in secret council, a gambit that could ensure  peace... at a terrible price.An epic  that drives us into an alternative world so real  that we become true denizens of the new Middle  Kingdom, touched by tomorrow's longings... driven by  forces as ancient as man's first  breath.
