    The most ruthless element of this book isn't the ghosts, but a feng shui scheme laid out over a thousand years.

Half a scroll of an ancient book falls from a crack in the wall, awakens the Blood-Patterned Palm technique of Zhuge Liang's bloodline, and she gets caught up in a burial scheme left by generations of Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, and Liu Bowen, all while being relentlessly pursued by descendants of tomb raiders.

    I've compiled a list of books I found to be well-written, with great stories, engaging content, and well-developed characters. Some are completed, others are ongoing, all are rereadable, and all feature strong female leads—but not invincible ones. They have planned and methodical methods for killing and doing things. There are no overly popular female characters, no rivalry among women, and no multiple women vying for one man. The female lead must be a capable, intelligent, and resourceful protagonist. I dislike stupid female leads; I love female leads who use their intellect to crush their opponents. Highly recommended, these are fantastic books!!!
