Books for Elixir May '23: The Art of Prophecy
Books for Elixir May '23: The Art of Prophecy
$ 18.00

by Wesley Chu


Trade Paperback
560 pages
Fiction / Epic Fantasy / Asian American

Summary:
So many stories begin the same way: With a prophecy. A chosen one. And the inevitable quest to slay a villain, save the kingdom, and fulfill a grand destiny.


But this is not that kind of story.


It does begin with a prophecy: A child will rise to defeat the Eternal Khan, a cruel immortal god-king, and save the kingdom.


And that prophecy did anoint a hero, Jian, raised since birth in luxury and splendor, and celebrated before he has won a single battle.


But that's when the story hits its first twist: The prophecy is wrong.


What follows is a story more wondrous than any prophecy could foresee, and with many unexpected heroes: Taishi, an older woman who is the greatest grandmaster of magical martial arts in the kingdom but who thought her adventuring days were all behind her; Sali, a straitlaced warrior who learns the rules may no longer apply when the leader to whom she pledged her life is gone; and Qisami, a chaotic assassin who takes a little too much pleasure in the kill.


And Jian himself, who has to find a way to become what he no longer believes he can be--a hero after all.
