About Instruments of Death
Witness an account of intrigue and death at the court of the Emperor
Watch the past come to life in this gripping comic-book story. Travel back in time to Ancient China. Meet Shen, a talented zither player taken from his home to play for the great Emperor at court. It’s a great honour and a dangerous mission.
On his travels, Shen is attacked by pirates and becomes a hero, rescuing friends of the Emperor from certain death – as a reward he’s asked to play at a great banquet.
But how safe is this new assignment and will Shen or the Emperor live to tell the tale?
