HEART OF THE SUN WARRIOR Celestial Kingdom, Book 2

Natalie Naudus returns to narrate the breathtaking sequel to DAUGHTER OF THE MOON GODDESS. The formality in Naudus's narration suits this story of courtly intrigue, fantastical magic, and Chinese mythology. Xingyin has been living a quiet life on the moon with her mother, Chang'e, but deadly threats to her family and the Celestial Kingdom drive them away. They seek refuge across the Immortal Realm, though few welcome them. Naudus keeps up with the action as Xingyin embarks on a quest to defeat a usurper to the throne. Listeners hear how her heart is pulled in two directions as she battles alongside Liwei and Wenzhi, facing down legendary creatures and wicked enemies. Naudus draws out all the emotions in the bittersweet yet hopeful conclusion. E.E.C. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2023]
