Nice to see a book like King Rat getting a little love. It's what? 50 years old or more now? Still a powerful story told by a master craftsman. I can't help but recommend Clavell's "Asian Saga" highly enough. I may not love every book, but all together it is a sweeping masterpiece. Shogun, Tai Pan and King Rat are my three favorites of the bunch.
