Sunrise Invasion

di Andrew M F Grafton (Autore)

Andrew M F Grafton, 2025

At the edge of the known world, an audacious fleet sails westward under the banner of the Japanese Emperor. Ten ships—part war machine, part floating city—cross uncharted waters to establish a foothold on distant shores before Europe can close its fist on the New World. At the heart of this mission stands Admiral Takahashi Hiroshi, a commander torn between loyalty to his Emperor and the unknown challenges of a continent unseen. Beside him marches General Saito Masaru, whose iron discipline is matched only by the storms they endure, and Hoshino Akemi, a court geisha and diplomat whose art becomes a weapon sharper than steel. Their company includes craftsmen, healers, priests, and even a captured Portuguese sailor whose faith and secrets may change the course of empires. From tempests at the Cape of Storms to fragile alliances with peoples of the Americas, Sunrise Invasion unfolds a sweeping tale of ambition, survival, and cultural collision. Political intrigue mixes with vivid battle scenes, while moments of quiet humanity remind us that conquest is never only won by swords. A gripping alternate history in the tradition of epic sagas, this novel explores what might have been had Japan reached the Western Hemisphere first. With richly detailed worldbuilding and a cast of unforgettable characters, Sunrise Invasion is both a story of empire and a meditation on the cost of ambition.
