Jade City

2017

by Fonda Lee

Jade City is an epic tale of family, honor, and those who live and die by the ancient laws of jade and blood. Set in the bustling metropolis of Kekon, jade is the most precious commodity, enhancing the abilities of the honorable Green Bone warriors. The Kaul family has long used it to protect the island from invasion. But as a new generation vies for power, they face not only their rivals but also a changing world.

When a revolutionary drug allows anyone to wield jade's power, the city's delicate balance is shattered, leading to a violent clan war that will determine the fate of all Green Bones. Fonda Lee crafts a narrative that is as gripping as it is immersive, inviting readers into a world where the lines between right and wrong are as complex as the city of Kekon itself.
