In the alternate history novel The New Empire , the world undergoes
a drastic change in the 14th century when Chinese ships land on the
west coast of what we know as the Bay Area of California. Fast
forward four hundred years to a much different America than we've
read about in the history books, a land dominated by a
cross-continental tribal confederacy grown out of a strong alliance
with Beijing. This new empire has been built on the backs of
enslaved Chinese political prisoners and a profitable trading
partnership overseas. Into the mix comes Jiangxi, youngest son of
the last Chinese Emperor. When he arrives from across the ocean as
a boy, he is purchased by Onas, a renowned tribal Elder of both the
Haudenosaunee and Mutsun tribes. As Jiangxi grows up, he's caught
between the two worlds of his past and present, forced into
choosing between opposing ideas of freedom. Told from the main
perspective of a Chinese slave in a Native American world, The New
Empire paints a vibrant picture that draws strongly on a
non-Eurocentric worldview.
