“Romance of the Three Kingdoms (ROTK) is hands down one of the great stories of all time. In Chinese culture the story is iconic, and most Chinese have grown up with it either through exposure to the novel itself, or the plethora of movies, TV shows, and video games derived from it. But ROTK is much less known in the West than it deserves to be. One reason for that (apart from Chinese culture's generally low visibility), is that it's a really tough read. The cast of characters and constant stream of battles related are so complicated that keeping up with who's who and what's what is a major undertaking. In his ROTK Podcast, John Zhu sets out to make the story digestible to a Western audience, first by breaking it down into bite-sized chunks (there are some 123 episodes to date, and it's not done yet) and then by providing a blow-by-blow commentary about the story. John succeeds admirably at this and has really brought the story to life for me. Highly recommended. As an aside, I'm reading an English translation of ROTK concurrently with following the podcast, and can also recommend doing this if you want to get the best out of both.”Read full review »
