Zen Cho returns with a found family wuxia fantasy that combines the vibrancy of old school martial arts movies with characters drawn from the margins of history.

A bandit walks into a coffeehouse, and it all goes downhill from there. Guet Imm, a young votary of the Order of the Pure Moon, joins up with an eclectic group of thieves (whether they like it or not) in order to protect a sacred object, and finds herself in a far more complicated situation than she could have ever imagined.

Rich in character and heart despite its brevity.

I'm new to Zen Cho, but this certainly ensures I'll come back. A #wuxia (or potentially #xianxia) novella, about a bandit crew dealing with the sudden imposition of a new member.

Funny, endearing, and with a lot of heart. Well recommended.
