Beskrivning
A hero once believed to be the chosen one must find a new path with the help of a band of unlikely allies in the epic conclusion to The War Arts Saga, an ode to martial arts and magic from the #1 New York Times bestselling author Wesley Chu. Once in a faraway kingdom there was a prince prophesied to be the Chosen One, who would defeat a great villain, the Eternal Khan, and save the kingdom.But then the Eternal Khan died...and the prophecy was broken.For Jian, the fated prince, this could have been a moment to succumb to despair. But instead, he chose to create his own destiny.He studied under his curmudgeonly but beloved mentor to become a great warrior. And he banded together with some unlikely allies whose courage and determination match his own-such as Sali, a gruff warrior who is also forging a path apart from the one her culture created for her.Because some heroes aren't simply born legends-they choose to become legendary. And great heroes do not stand alone, but are stronger together.
