A young warrior dreams of proving his worth in the elite Guardian Tournament, fighting not only for himself but the fate of everything he loves.
Sixteen-year-old Jun dreams of proving his worth as a warrior in the elite Guardian’s Tournament, held every six years to entrust the magical Scroll of Heaven to a new protector. Eager to prove his skills, Jun hopes that a win will restore his father’s pride—righting a horrible mistake that caused their banishment from his home, mother, and twin brother.
But Jun’s father strictly forbids him from participating. He believes there is no future in Jun honing his skills as a warrior, especially considering Jun is not breathmarked, born with a patch of dragon scales and blessed with special abilities like his twin. Determined to be the next Guardian, Jun stows away in the wagon of Chang and his daughter, Ren, performers on their way to the capital where the tournament will take place.
As Jun competes, he quickly realizes he may be fighting for not just a better life, but the fate of the country itself and the very survival of everyone he cares about.
A Macmillan Audio production from Wednesday Books.

Critic reviews
"The unpredictable plot twists and innovative magic system, which incorporates religious elements, are intriguing and, along with Jun’s realistic emotional development and reactions, create a gripping narrative...A complex, hard-hitting, epic martial arts journey."—Kirkus (starred review)
"The authors extol Bruce Lee’s principles while continually raising the stakes and surprising readers with thoughtful twists in this relentlessly paced and exquisitely choreographed martial arts fantasy series opener."—Publishers Weekly
"I'm genuinely awestruck by the brilliance of this coming-of-age novel. Infused with the vital essence of Bruce Lee's intellect, martial arts prowess, and philosophical depth, it's a captivating journey that transcends the ordinary–a master class in storytelling. I loved it and cannot wait for the next book!"—Jamie Ford, New York Times bestselling author of The Many Daughters of Afong Moy

The book got my attention pretty quickly and I stayed entertained throughout the whole thing. It's well written with good character development and world building. Definitely worth a listen. 4.5/5
My only gripe with this audiobook was the reader. His voice was fine but he had a weird cadence. It kind of reminded me of the way Christopher Walken speaks but less distinct. I give him a 3.9/5
Overall, pretty good.
