Description
Julia Vee and Ken Bebelle's Ebony Gate is a female John Wick story with dragon magic set in contemporary San Francisco’s Chinatown.
Emiko Soong belongs to one of the eight premier magical families of the world. But Emiko never needed any magic. Because she is the Blade of the Soong Clan. Or was. Until she’s drenched in blood in the middle of a market in China, surrounded by bodies and the scent of blood and human waste as a lethal perfume.
The Butcher of Beijing now lives a quiet life in San Francisco, importing antiques. But when a shinigami, a god of death itself, calls in a family blood debt, Emiko must recover the Ebony Gate that holds back the hungry ghosts of the Yomi underworld. Or forfeit her soul as the anchor.
What's a retired assassin to do but save the City by the Bay from an army of the dead?
A Macmillan Audio production from Tor Books.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Ebony Gate is a snarky Harry Dresden meets Shang-Chi, with a dash of Monster Hunter International.”—Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling co-author of Dune: House Atreides
“A wild, exhilarating ride through a living San Francisco populated with ghosts, magical beasts, and one tough-as-nails heroine. Adventurous and filled with heart, exploring the struggles of a bloody past and familial duty, Ebony Gate is a spectacular start to what promises to be an engrossing series.”—Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter
“Ebony Gate is a bizarre and exciting thrill ride! It’s Doctor Strange meets Shang-Chi with a big dose of original characters, modern fantasy, and dynamic action. Highly recommended!”—Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of the Joe Ledger Thrillers and Kagen the Damned

Great Asian inspired urban fantasy
Ebony Gate borrows many urban fantasy tropes but makes them fresh by infusing Asian mythology into the story. I will definitely be tuning in for the next book.

Read this!!
What a rollicking start to a series! This book was non-stop action mixed with the ever-entangling roots of connection: to family, to friends, to place. I enjoyed how smart Emiko is as a character. It was refreshing to read a mystery where she isn't scrounging for clues the entire time and making wrong guesses, but knows enough to pinpoint her target and is instead outgunned and has to regroup. It brought Emiko's lone wolf character flaw into stark relief as she had to change tactics and open herself to taking allies. Honestly, after this riot of a book, I cannot wait for book 2!
