Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Centuries after war shattered the old empire, the rice roads still feed the provinces of Akitsuna. And men still kill to control them.Haru was once a soldier of the northern clans-a man who helped burn villages, break families, and deepen the hatred dividing the realm. Now, disgraced and carrying the weight of what he has done, he crosses the border into enemy territory with no army, no title, and no weapon stronger than a promise: He will serve the people he once helped destroy.In the famine-stricken province of Kensei, suspicion runs deep. Bandits stalk the roads. Corrupt officials profit from starvation. Old wounds are still raw from generations of violence. Haru is treated not as a savior, but as an invader wearing humility like a disguise.Yet while others reach for power, Haru begins rebuilding irrigation canals, carrying grain, burying the dead, and protecting the vulnerable-one act of service at a time.But peace is fragile.As warlords maneuver for control and old enemies close in, Haru's quiet mission threatens forces far larger than himself. To survive, he must confront not only the violence of the realm-but the man he used to be.Set in a richly imagined world inspired by medieval Japan, The Rice Road is an epic historical fantasy of redemption, sacrifice, loyalty, and the difficult work of becoming worthy of forgiveness.Perfect for readers of Shogun, Silence, and The Name of the Rose-blending literary depth, spiritual tension, and sweeping historical atmosphere.…
