(4) YA Luka has been raised by a monk who believes the boy is destined to become the emperor prophesized to rid China of its Mogo invaders. When Luka is falsely imprisoned, an elderly kung fu master teaches him the martial arts and helps him escape. The prose vacillates between rather grand language and off-puttingly modern colloquial speech, but fans of kung fu films should enjoy this action-packed novel that also contains a touch of fantasy.
