Critics Review

PRAISE FOR THE SERIES

“Electrifying, thrilling, and a glorious, romantic ride, The Art of Prophecy is a true delight. Readers won’t be able to put it down.”-Robert Jackson Bennett, author of The Founders Trilogy

“An ambitious and touching exploration of disillusionment in faith, tradition, and family-a glorious reinvention of fantasy and wuxia tropes.”-Naomi Novik, New York Times bestselling author of A Deadly Education

“A whirlwind tale rich with politics and fantastical martial arts…Chu tells a refreshing coming-of-age story with a ‘chosen one’ who faces real challenges to become a hero.”-Robin Hobb, author of the Fitz and the Fool Trilogy

“In this superb fantasy saga of tough, old martial-arts masters and inexperienced young heroes, Wesley Chu has given us a richly inventive page-turner that delights on every page. The Art of Prophecy is Wesley Chu at the height of his imaginative powers, and I can’t wait for the next installment!”-Helene Wecker, author of The Golem and the Jinni and The Hidden Palace

“Wesley Chu has done it again-this time on an epic scale. The Art of Prophecy is a terrific and compelling story that plays off so many classic tales taken from our own world and reinvents them all in classic fashion.”-Terry Brooks, New York Times bestselling author of Child of Light

“Come for the awesome fight choreography, stay for the sly wit, worldbuilding, and a fresh and unexpected take on the hero’s journey!”-Jacqueline Carey, New York Times bestselling author of Kushiel’s Legacy

In The Art of Prophecy, Wesley Chu writes like a master war artist. The War Arts Saga introduces a lavish world of martial arts that transcends into the mystical, just as this grandiose epic fantasy adventure transcends the page and comes alive in your mind. - Peter V. Brett, New York Times bestselling author of The Desert Prince

”[The Art of Prophecy] is squarely directed at kung fu, wuxia, and wire-fu fans who adore Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Hero; The Legend of Drunken Master; Kung Fu Hustle, and the like, providing a story with an epic sweep punctuated with dashes of humor and sharp-edged banter… . Dramatic, fun, thoughtful, clever, and (literally) punchy.“-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Chu’s wry prose and characters are a delightful counterpoint to the physical and emotional demands undertaken by Jian and his allies, while the subplots build a vast panoramic view of this incredible world in the first of a new series.”-Library Journal
