Chinese historical and fantasy stories have fascinated me since the day I started reading. Most of these stories, however, are written in the Mandarin language, which is indeed a challenge to master. I believe many readers out there would love these stories if they were written in English. It's my aspiration to delight you with original stories of this genre in English. Here’s the first one! Thanks so much for reading and stay tuned for more!

The Thunder Gods is an ancient fantasy novel that tells a gripping tale of a Chinese warrior god, Lei Yu, accused of killing his brother and conspiring with the enemy. When his true love was the daughter of an archenemy, doubtlessly, his trials and tribulations tripled… But when the deadliest antagonist was his father, the Lord of Thunder, the young warrior was besieged on all sides.
The novel is packed with heart-wrenching and nail-biting details of how Lei Yu struggled to save his dying brother, overturned the conspiracy theory and reversed his lord father's prejudice of his lover from the dark side. Amid the ordeals, he had to wage decisive wars to save his world terrorised by the cruel and ambitious demon monarch who had set his sights on ruling the realm. And never bestowed with an easy life, the princely hero was commanded to capture their powerful enemy alive in the most hostile environment.
With adversity waiting around every turn, the fascinating narration revealed how the protagonist trekked through the perilous path against all odds and freed himself from his predicaments. Clearly, his victories could only be awash with bloodshed and agonies.
So, sit back and enjoy an epic that will melt you with sweet innocent love one moment, and in the next, spellbinds you with atrocities and despair so grim and devastating. All these revealed in more than 400 thrilling pages!
Excerpts:
Romance:
"Indeed, a beauty unsurpassed stood before the warrior gods. Long shimmering hair purposely let loose swirled behind her back as an eerie preternatural wind played with it. Her black and tight outfit showed off her well-formed body and brazen sexuality. Topped with a pair of hypnotic purple eyes and a lusty, wicked smile, she was downright haunting and seductive."
"His face was red as fire. Hers was blazing… The passionate desire to taste her lips, nibble her skin quickly surged into an unquenchable thirst to devour her beauty and melt their essence into one. She responded well to his hot-blooded intimacy, and both were soon united by their uninhibited love."
Humour:
"Her flirtatious eyes nailed shamelessly on his blushing face for so long he was falling off his seat in awkwardness. "Hey, Lei Yu, you're here," she finally said. "Have you decided if you'll marry me?"… Holy lord! That eloquent, powerful one-liner could have forced a saint to lunacy. The poor lad felt as if he was hauled stark naked onto a huge public stage flushed with nothing but glaring and dazzling lights."
Bloodshed:
"Their lust for blood made them lick their lips and all thirsty; their hatred of the menacing gods made them pined for their flesh and all ready to blow their brains into pastes."
"Only his blood poured, poured and poured! With it came pain, pain and unending pain! Soon, the snow below the tormented warrior was a sea of red."
