An epic fantasy ode to martial arts and magic, about what happens when a prophesied hero is not the chosen one after all―but has to work with a band of unlikely allies to save the kingdom anyway, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Lives of TaoSo many stories begin the same way: With a prophecy.

But that’s when the story hits its first twist: The prophecy is wrong. What follows is a story more wondrous than any prophecy could foresee, and with many unexpected heroes: Taishi, an older woman who is the greatest grandmaster of magical martial arts in the kingdom but who th
