   I highly recommend this book! It's incredibly good and thrilling. I think it rivals "The Godslayer." The beginning is great, and the later parts are just as good. It involves historical and mythological figures like Bai Qi, Qin Shi Huang, Nezha, and Yang Jian. It's a fantastic fantasy/mythological story, and this genre is really excellent. A truly highly recommended read!
