The Five AncestorsIt is fantasy-based book about a couple of young monks with special animal like abilities and qualities who train in a hidden place and basically just live there. They train with their grandmaster who also teaches other monks who lie there as well. One day they were taken to a temple and the five young monks were hidden in a barrel. They trained to accustom themselves to that type of situation, Fu the oldest of the group had been stuck at the bottom of the barrel and started toHidden in the forest was a temple for monks. A group of brothers learn their own kind of kung-fu which their grandmaster taught them. One day, their brother, Ying, decides to take his army and attack the temple. The brothers are the only ones who survived and escaped. Fu fought back and stole back the dragon scrolls before running away. Unfortunately, that wasnt the end of him encountering Ying and his other brothers. The thing that I really enjoyed about this book was the description. As I read
I forced my way through a lot of this and finally skimmed my way to the end. I see a lot of high scores here so all I can say is...I'm happy for you. This is a YA book...that stands for "Young Adult". The emphasis here is on the "Young". This book it seems to me is aimed largely at preteen to young teen boys. It's full of fights, bodily fluids (including but not restricted to mucus and feces)... The dialogue, well it's really sort of elevating it some to call it dialogue but there you go. Anyway
I really enjoyed this book. It drew me in quickly. Typically I don't read much about China or the Chinese in general, but this book, and the others in the series, have been the exception. Despite the fact that they are written for children, I think adults will find them enjoyable. They are not difficult to read nor is the plot overly complex, but none of that matters. This book draws you into the struggle these children face after their home is destroyed. There is a bit of a mystery that the
I first read this book when I was a kid (and all of the series except for the last book) and I wanted to re-read it because I remember it being fun. It still is! I just finished this and I'm starting the second book, now. It has a good storyline with some good, unique qualities. Overall I would say that it's fun, entertaining, and easy to get into.
Fu and his five brothers got split apart. Fu is on a journey to kill the Emporer, he wants to bring justice to his people and Grandmaster because the Emporer sent people to kill them and their people. Fu meets a lot of people during this journey he taught the kicks and etc. I really didnt like this book because of the lack of action. I was told that this story was going to be full of fighting and action, This book was boring in my opinion because of how the book had a great structure but the
Although I read the whole book I disliked it for many reasons. Some reasons why I didn't like it was due to the storyline. What I mean by this is that the story, in my opinion, was not that good, it's about this main character named Fu and his brothers and how they have spirit animals which Fu being a tiger and his brothers having one too. And sometimes in the book, it was good due to the action but that's about it when there wasn't action happening I didn't like it as much. In my opinion it was
