The Heavenly Sword
DESCRIPTION :
Set in a world of human conflicts, fantastical martial arts, sorcery and celestial magic, Alice Poonâs debut fantasy, The Heavenly Sword, follows a martial maidenâs heartbreaking adventures in her quest for love and justice.
The goddess Changâe, reborn as Shandong village girl Tang Saiâer, is sent by the Deities to the mortal world to impede a future tyrant. Her mission requires her to be both a warrior and also chaste.
The Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, the Sky Wolf incarnate and once Changâeâs suitor in heaven, incites a brutal civil war to usurp the throne. He secretly covets Saiâer, but also fears her power.
Ma Sanbao, a eunuch in Zhu Diâs Palace, falls in love with Saiâer while they train together in Wudang kung fu. Saiâer is enamored of Sanbao, but knows she must focus on her celestial mission and her desire to protect her family and village folks from the tyrant.
When Saiâer and her allies pit themselves against the wicked new Emperor and other adversaries, one being the vicious Green Dragon, Saiâer has to enlist the help of the immortals. But even with their help, she finds that her dreams are on a collision course with her mission.
The Heavenly Sword is the first part of a spellbinding duology weaving Chinese mythical folklore and speculative history into a sweeping tale of family love, fellowship loyalty, loss, sacrifice and kung fu rivalry.
