About this audiobook
Drugged. Wounded. A price on her head. And that's the good news.
Herself. For years, Hok has hidden her true identity from her brothers at Cangzhen. Now, at last, she can be herself. And yet, who is she? Calm and thoughtful, Hok is a crane-style kung fu master carefully attuned to others, but she has never spent much time looking inward. After barely surviving the destruction of two warrior monk strongholds, Hok realizes her old world is gone. She finds her way to the city of Kaifeng and begins a new life.
But her old life intervenes and she must join forces with Fu and Seh to pursue the captured Malao. Their quest takes them to the city of Jinan and into the sinister underground world of fight clubs, where matches are fixed and rules don't exist. Against incredible odds, the young monks must use their sharp wits to stay together and their formidable kung fu skills to survive.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very secret-opening, informational, action packed
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A great young adults martial arts tale
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I'm not certain how I feel about this book now that I have finished it. In the beginning I found myself feeling bombarded with information, either as a rehashing of what had happened in previous books or as a way of hurrying along to the next part of the plot. I felt almost as if I was being pushed along on this maddening experience without getting much chance to breathe. Once we reached an actual plot point for the Snake character, however, things calmed down a little and I settled into reading. There were several times where I felt characters were still being thrown at me and the twists and turns of the plot were very reminiscent of a snake slithering along in the woods, but on the whole I eventually found a comfortable place with the journey the book was putting me on.I deeply enjoy the series and found the end of the book left me hanging, wanting to know what more there is to discover about each of the animals to come. Hopefully there will be a little more balance and a little less rush in the next book of the series. Either way, this is an action-packed, fun read for martial arts fans and I can't wait to see what happens next.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very interesting. A good read.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5possibly my favorite in the series, snake is silent and cool and calculating. best of all, the plot in this third-of-five has me craving more.
