“The bad guy of this series finally gets his story. A good lesson in learning WHY people become what they are for kids and change is always possible.” —Goodreads, Joy “Watching Ying regain feeling, finding himself, and come back to what he was is beautiful to watch.” —Goodreads, Wendy Change. For years, Ying hated his grandmaster for denying him the opportunity to train as a Dragon, and held a deep resentment for his five younger temple siblings—Grandmaster’s favorites. He took his revenge and burnt the Cangzhen temple to the ground, but the five youngsters survived and continued to be a thorn in his side. Yet, when betrayed by the emperor and imprisoned, it was his younger sister, Hok, who rescued him. In the fifth installment of Jeff Stone’s groundbreaking series, old allegiances are questioned and new ones are made.
