Requests:  0 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"--Page [4] of cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Ewa Beach P/S Library Acquisitions --- On Order     in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Chu   Transit   Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Fiction Chu   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Chu Bk.1 Checked out 07/03/2024 Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Fiction Chu   Checked out 06/25/2024 Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Chu   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
