About this audiobook
The Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties: A History of China, Part One sweeps you into an era when empires rose, fell, and rose again. From Yang Jian, the Sui founder who reunited China after centuries of division, to the grandeur of the Tang, this is a story of ambition and destiny. Emperor Wen’s reforms revived a fractured land, but his successor Yang Guang’s costly wars doomed the Sui. Amid rebellion, Li Yuan seized the moment, founding the Tang in 618. His son Li Shimin—later Emperor Taizong—claimed power through blood at the Xuanwu Gate, ushering in the brilliant Zhenguan Golden Age. Under Emperor Gaozong and generals like Su Dingfang, Tang power reached its peak, triumphing at the Battle of Baekgang and reshaping East Asia. Yet even in glory, intrigue and ambition lurked beneath. This is the pulse of empire—bold, tragic, and unforgettable.
