Lord Of Formosa by Joyce Bergvelt
A sweeping historical novel that traces the rise of Zheng Chenggong (Koxinga) from displaced scion to formidable maritime warlord, portraying his struggle to restore Ming legitimacy, his complicated loyalties and family ties, and the brutal clashes with Dutch colonists and rival Chinese factions as he battles for control of Taiwan; richly evoking 17th-century East Asian politics, seafaring combat, cultural collision, and the personal costs of ambition and exile.
