The Ming Storm by Yan Leisheng, another Assassins's Creed book, felt like an interesting way to include the magical aspects we've seen along with the more mundane parts of the world of AC.

Badass female lead plus Ming dynasty? Yes, please.

The tidbits of history blended into an Assassin's Creed story, combined with the exposure to ancient Chinese culture, makes for a rather interesting read. And what better time than AAPI month? I do feel that there were minor moments of lost in translation/not translated properly, but it was never a big enough hang up to deter from the main point. A rich story interwoven with plenty of action; just like the game series. TV series happening when?

Depending on your reading level, it *may* be a tad difficult for a Western reader, but I thought of that as a satisfying challenge.

I loved the Assasins Creed film - I know thats potentially not a popular thing to say as the feedback on the film wasnt great from the gaming community. But it worked for me..
This book is a great additon to the series, I imagien the gamers are going to be on board with it too - everyone loves a good Templar mystery. This is a great book for any scifi fan.

The Ming Storm is an Assassin's Creed story, following the Chinese Assassin Shao Jun. I love the games and I enjoy reading these books. I really enjoyed this book and would recommend checking it out, especially if you are a fan of the game.

I really struggled to get into this latest installment set in the Assassins Creed universe. The more i read the more I really wasn't bothered what happened to the characters. Quite disappointing!
