Historical 14-year quest of the 7th century Chinese monk, Xuanzang, to obtain Buddhist sutras - travelling through Xinjiang, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.

Yun-Chong Pan's retelling of the story, originally crafted by the Ming Dynasty story-teller, Wu Chengen, will captivate children with its fantasy, and delight young and old with its layers of reality and satire grounded in Chinese, Indian, Greek, and Old Testament mythology.
