Review:
This is the final volume of the Journey to Wudang, and it completes the second series in a satisfying manner. We had to expect it to end with a few loose ends, given that Kylie Chan has already stated that there will be a third trilogy to complete the story of Emma Donahoe and her family. Heaven to Wudang is the sixth book about Emma, John, Simone and Leo and although it’s supposed to be the final book of the second trilogy, it doesn’t come across that way.
I love the colourful world Kylie Chan created in this series with the use of Chinese mythology. This is very different from other European mythology-based fantasy novels that many of us have already read a stack of. It’s her world that draws me to these stories and keeps me coming back.
If you have enjoyed the previous books in this series, then you will enjoy the last in the latest trilogy, but be warned, there will be more books continuing the series.
