After his augmented reality gaming headset is possessed by the spirit of the First Emperor of China, twelve-year-old Chinese American Zack Ying is compelled to travel across China to steal an ancient artifact, fight figures from Chinese history and myth,and seal a portal to prevent malicious spirits from destroying the human realm. - Simon and Schuster
Percy Jackson meets Tristan Strong in this hilarious middle grade âedge-of-your-seat adventureâ (James Ponti, New York Times bestselling author of City Spies) that follows a young boy as he journeys across China to seal the underworld shut and save the mortal realm.
Zachary Ying never had many opportunities to learn about his Chinese heritage. His single mom was busy enough making sure they got by, and his schools never taught anything except Western history and myths. So Zack is woefully unprepared when he discovers he was born to host the spirit of the First Emperor of China for a vital mission: sealing the leaking portal to the Chinese underworld before the upcoming Ghost Month blows it wide open.
The mission takes an immediate wrong turn when the First Emperor botches his attempt to possess Zackâs body and binds to Zackâs AR gaming headset instead, leading to a battle where Zackâs momâs soul gets taken by demons. Now, with one of historyâs most infamous tyrants yapping in his headset, Zack must journey across China to heist magical artifacts and defeat figures from history and myth, all while learning to wield the emperorâs incredible water dragon powers.
And if Zack canât finish the mission in time, the spirits of the underworld will flood into the mortal realm, and he could lose his mom forever.
