Dragon

The series, five ancestors, which I had written my previous blog about, has come to a close. The final installment follows the eldest monk, Long, the dragon kung fu master, and his path to his destiny. Tonglong, the general and southern warlord, has kidnapped the emperor, and plans to bring him to the forbidden city and make himself emperor. The emperors body guard meets Long, and decides that they should trick everyone into believing that Long was the emperor by bringing him to the forbidden city. This is to lower Tonglong's power rate, because people wouldnt believe that he actually had the emperor. Long then meets up with his cousin Ying, the master eagle/dragon kung fu monk, and together they stop and kill Tonglong, and save the emperor. I really love how Jeff Stone brought the series to a close. I also really like how you can tell that this wasn't his plan all along, and that he added strong new characters like Laoshu, little mouse, and wrote a book about Ying. He had originally planed to only write five books, but ended up writting seven and I really enjoy that he was flexible and let his thoughts carry him to a new and exciting place. All in all I would highly recomend this book to anyone who wants an interesting read, but read the rest of the series first!
