Thrump-o-moto by James Clavell
Patricia, a sick little girl waiting for her father to return, is visited by what seems to be a ball of material falling from the sky, but turns into a small Japanese wizard and samurai, Thrumpomoto. This is just one surprise for Patricia in a magic journey, travelling across continents and time.
James Clavell, the son of a Royal Navy family, was educated in Portsmouth before, as a young artillery officer, he was captured by the Japanese at the Fall of Singapore. It was on this experience that his bestselling novel KING RAT was based. He maintained this oriental interest in his other great works: TAI-PAN, SHOGUN, NOBLE HOUSE and GAI JIN. Clavell lived for many years in Vancouver and Los Angeles, before settling in Switzerland, where he died in 1994.
