   No clichés, and it gets more interesting with every read! Kai Zhongkan's novels, starting with "The Path of Feng Shui Cultivation," followed by "One Man and One Mouse Cultivate Immortality," and then "Mecha Immortal Path: Invincible from Exile to Mars," are all now complete. These three books form a cultivation trilogy. Now, he's back with a new book, but this time he's not writing about cultivation. Instead, he's writing about things closer to home: feng shui, human nature, kung fu, strategy, breaking through barriers, the eight major sects of the martial arts world, and his journey of overcoming obstacles to build a business empire and leverage regional military power… This new book is called "The Hidden Game of Horsemanship," where horsemanship represents yin and yang, and the hidden game of human nature represents the world. The book's message: ... You can't be afraid; if you are, you lose! Highly recommended!
