Order of Asian Saga Books

British novelist James Clavell crafted the Asian Saga, a sweeping collection of historical fiction that chronicles centuries of Asian history. This ambitious series traverses time and geography, beginning with 17th-century feudal Japan and journeying through 19th-century Hong Kong, wartime Japan and Singapore during World War II, and concluding in 1979 Iran. Clavell's vision was clear: to "tell the story of the Anglo-Saxon in Asia."

Launching with King Rat in 1962, the Asian Saga reached its finale thirty-one years later with Gai-Jin in 1993, encompassing five compelling novels. While Clavell released these books outside their historical sequence, readers can enjoy them in either publication or chronological order.
