Jade War

Product Information

There is a cool duel that left me on my tiptoe and many surprised along the way that I think you should experience for yourselves. Accordingly, while Jade City offered some notion of what was outside of Kekon, this time the stage is truly international. At the heart of Jade War, the story is heavily centered on war, and the implications the conflicts have on the Kaul family.

The inclusion of Shotar and Espenia, to name a few, made the series more complex than before, and yet, it’s still impressively accessible. Best of all, there are more than a few scenes that make you hold your breath, moments that could change the game for some of the players. The books featured on this site are aimed primarily at readers aged 13 or above and therefore you must be 13 years or over to sign up to our newsletter. Neither can I say this novel suffers the “middle book syndrome”, because I really don’t know what it was supposed to set up for the sequel.If mafia families, magic, and politics are your cup of tea, I don't think it gets any better than this. One of my favorite aspects about this series is how well-done the multi-POV was especially given how fast the timeline goes.

Every time someone talks to Espenian representatives, Lee feels the need to specify not only who these people are, where they worked, to whom their are faithful. This information was of course leaked by the Mountain clan to get Shae’s reputation and integrity to be questioned.

All of us are familiar with books with ‘second-book syndrome’; where the second book feels like filler between the epic beginning and epic ending.

Friends asked me how I found this book whilst reading it, and the best word I could use to describe it was… ‘bigger’ – and I don’t mean that in the physical-page-number sense. For the first half of the book Lee sets up a situation where two characters are directly opposing in a media war, but when they finally confront each other it only lasts one chapter and the outcome is never brought up again. Fonda is a former corporate strategist and black belt martial artist who loves action movies and Eggs Benedict.Fiercer, more ambitious, and bigger in scope, the events that occurred in Jade City subtly enhanced the looming tension hanging around behind the shadows of the characters.
