This historical tale is now fully imagined in a dramatic and modern retelling and is being developed as a rap musical that will inspire readers of all generations for years to come.Guan Yu (160 - 220 A.D.), also known as Guan Gong (Lord Guan), has been celebrated as a pan-Asiatic hero for well over a thousand years. He has been repeatedly canonized and deified across Asia. This historically detailed novel tells the story of his humble beginnings in a rural setting, his unexpected journey into martial arts, the murder of his family members, his unexpected love story, and his emergence as an invincible warrior.

Together, the three men, known as the Peach Garden Brothers, become the backbone of a military force competing against warlords for control of the declining Han Empire.

With great courage, she escapes her bondage and unexpectedly meets Lord Guan during her frightening getaway. Lord Guan ultimately sacrifices his life for his mission.
