Synopsis
In the 14th year of the Tianbao Era (CE 755) An Lushan, a military governor with ties to the Knights Templar, leads his elite corps to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, and the ill-prepared Tang empire falters under the threat. The two capitals Luoyang and Chang'an fall and China falls under the oppression of the cruel An Lushan.
As the Tang dynasty starts to crumble, Li E, a shady Assassin trained by the Hidden Ones in the far West, teams up with Tang loyalists to turn the tide and save both the dynasty and the country from this crisis.

My review
This is a brilliant graphic novel. I really enjoyed reading it and was straight away fascinated by the story line. The pictures in this book was brilliant adding a thrilling atmosphere. I became so engrossed in it I totally lost track of time it felt more like I was watching a film. I had to read it in one sitting. I loved the action sequences. When I had finished reading it there was a brilliant story section explaining that the story line was based on actual history which I was fascinated by. A graphic novel and a history lesson all rolled into one wow. This history section also looking at each character and what role they played which was very interesting. It was also a brilliant culture lesson aswell. It really is a wonderful gripping, action packed novel. I just had to know what was going to happen next and I can't wait to read more of this series. I really recommend reading this graphic novel. Thank you so much to the author, illustrator and publishers for creating an amazing insight into this amazing culture. It was a truly amazing read.
