Ancient China, 519 B.C. Yuan, a State of Chu warrior, stands front and center on his
chariot, reins in hand, holding at bay a spirited team of
horses. He is anxious for a chance to unleash his rage on
the invading Wu barbarians in the battle before him. His
eyes fix enviously on a fellow soldier, a halberdier who
extends his hooked weapon over the shoulder of an enemy who
desperately sprints away from the charging chariot. Yuan knows the result before it happens. The wicked blade
rips through flesh and muscle, and sinks into the enemy’s
collar bone as screams echo off the Dabie Shan Mountains.
Yuan glances toward Field Marshall Wei Yue, thirsting for
the order to charge into the fray. He needs this fight to
restore his family’s honor. But on the march to battle,
Chu’s brilliant General Yang Gai dies, and the less capable
Wei Yue snatches control. Can the newly anointed Field Marshall rise to the challenge?
The Emperor has lost his grip on the feudal States, and
brutal rivalries, both new and old, now rule. Individual
States constantly collide, and noblemen must rise in power
to overcome the crushing will of warring factions. Only two outcomes are possible - prevail or perish. Yuan
finds himself catapulted into the throes of treacherous
enemies, not only on the battlefield but also at home. This
superior warrior will need all his skill and cunning to stay
alive. Hidden Paths is the first book in The Mark of Wu series. It
opens as the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou
Dynasty devolves toward the Warring States Period.
