Game of Thrones set in a semi-fantastical Chinese setting, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon: The Green Destiny transports us to a stunningly painted Chinese landscape of beautiful concubines,wandering 'samurai' fighters, misty peaks, lonely hermits and exotic cities. Through the eyes of Yu Shulian, a Chinese Tess of the D'urbervilles who can deliver roundhouse kicks and is deadly with her two matched sabres, we are introduced to compelling stories of love, sex, honour and revenge.
