DAUGHTER OF THE MOON GODDESS Celestial Kingdom, Book 1

Natalie Naudus narrates a sweeping romantic saga inspired by Chinese mythology. Xingyin, who was raised on the moon by her mother, Chang'e, makes her way to the Celestial Kingdom to try to obtain her mother's freedom. Xingyin initially struggles to find her place, and Naudus portrays both her fear at being alone in a new world and her determination to succeed in her quest. When Xingyin is ultimately made companion to Crown Prince Liwei, Naudus captures her blossoming confidence and continued determination. Secondary characters from a variety of unique and distinct backgrounds are performed with finesse, most notably Crown Prince Liwei and Captain Wenzhi, the two main competitors vying for Xingyin's attention.
