Wukong: Havoc In Heaven

Sun Wukong has never feared Heaven.Now its armies are coming—and for once, he wishes his six sworn brothers would turn their backs on him.He sets out the wine, invents his excuses, and sends them down the mountain one by one. If he can get them far enough away, he can fight this war alone.At dawn, all six return—with weapons in hand.None of them says a word about his excuses. None accepts his goodbye.The monkeys of Flower-Fruit Mountain believe their king can do anything. He has defied the Dragon Palace and altered the Register of Life and Death. Wukong once believed it too—until Heaven blockades the coast, fire sweeps up the mountain, and he cannot save everyone who falls.He crouches, scoops up a handful of scorched earth, and lifts it to his nose.The hand that wields his iron staff begins to tremble.Heaven set out to conquer Flower-Fruit Mountain.Now it must find a way to defend its own gates.But the gods of the East are not the only ones watching. The commander of the western Holy Host has drawn his sword to test Wukong’s strength, and the divine iron Wukong carries is tied to an ancient accord guarded by both Heavens. What has he really set in motion?The angel Cassiel may know more. With book and quill, she has orders to observe and record everything. She must never intervene. Yet her pages already contain words she must keep hidden.She could keep watching until the day she has to record his death.But what if she doesn’t want him to die?
