A Long Song of the Bloodline: The Han Moon Shines for a Thousand Years

In 247 BC, Chen Shou, a young man from Longxi, scattered the last handful of earth over his father's grave, believing all that remained for him was a wretched life. But after being killed in a secret disaster within the Qin palace and thrown into a river, he unexpectedly awakened to an immortal body. This was no gift, but a long curse that would carry him through the turmoil of the Qin dynasty, the Chu-Han contention, and the ambitions of Emperor Wu of Han.

He erased his name and withdrew from the world, changing his face and identity. From a lowly patrolman to a Grand Palace Physician, from a traveling doctor to the Daoist Master Yuquan, he spent three hundred years as a solitary spectator swept along by the currents of history. But blood ties do not lie. His eldest son's longevity and his grandson's precociousness bound him fast in the shackles of protecting his family.

In the final years of Emperor Wu of Han, a mysterious organization came after him. The secrets of ancient ruins in the Wuling Mountains, a desperate escape through the Nanling Mountains, and the family's intertwined public and hidden struggles all came to a head. The secret of immortality could no longer stay concealed. In the shadowy corners of history, he had to carve out a path to survival for his descendants, one that would span a thousand years.
