    About this ebook

    Author Kylie Chan has a boldly, brazenly unique take on urban fantasy—she combines it with Kung Fu. In Earth to Hell, Chan launches the characters from her Dark Heavens trilogy (White Tiger, Red Phoenix, Blue Dragon) on a new adventure that will take them from the teeming streets of Hong Kong through the portals of Hell to set free a friend—as demons and devils rise up to challenge them in life-or-death battle, forcing Emma Donahoe Chen, wife of God of the Northern Heavens, to seek the help of a sworn foe, the fearsome Demon King. An irresistible blend of Chinese mythology, martial arts action, and ingenious invention, Earth to Hell is a treat for Kung Fu movie fans; for readers of Lilith Saintcrow, Liz Williams, Karen Chance, Devon Monk, and Ilona Andrews; and for anyone who desires a different kind of fantasy.

      I wanted to like this book but I couldn't get into to it.
    • 5/5
      Welp, it official... these books are awesome. Started out a bit rough, but by halfway through the first trilogy the author had really hit her stride, and there's been no looking back. I've been reading them at night before bed, in the morning while I eat my cereal, during every break I can sneak at work... it's crazy. This is the first book of the 2nd trilogy (the series is supposed to finish out at 9 books, 3 sets of trilogies), and it is rather dense with references to people and things that have happened in the previous books. But I just finished the first series, so this is not a problem. Recommended to people who like urban fantasy, Chinese mythology, and the first trilogy.

      Earth to Hell: Journey to Wudang: Book One by Kylie ChanIf you liked the first trilogy, this one is in much the same vein. If you're an urban fantasy fan but haven't read the first trilogy I recommend you go back and do that before reading this one. I really must tell you that it is going to bed impossible to read this book if you have not read the first three books. In fact, I would strongly suggest a re-read to brush up on stuff. I haven’t read the series in about a year and even I was at sea for much of the book.We rejoin the series after 8 years have passed, Emma is nearly 40 and still pretty much as useless in a fight as she was at first unless she is bringing out her Snake side. You see, she needs to meet challenges for Simone’s hand and she isn’t doing a very good job of it. John is still gone, although there are times when he will come back briefly – either in dreams, or a sort of mirage – and help Emma try to get the Demon out of her so she won’t become a Snake Mother. Leo is still in Hell after all these years, but there is something eveil going on and there are duplicate Leo’s all around.There are huge nests of Snake Mothers and Demons and hatchlings to be found and Emma needs help. A lot of it. So whom does she go to for help? The Demon King. Oh yes!Again there is action but not enough to over 500 pages. There is so much redundancy that I’m surprised that the authors editor would have allowed this book to pass. Simone has become a typical teenager and can be whiny and very annoying. Sometimes you just want to see Emma step up to the plate and do something about Simone’s attitude but she doesn’t. The rich and detailed Chinese mythology, history and details makes for a fascinating read on its ownThe books do hold my interest at least in finding out what will happen once John gets back so that I keep reading and some of the action is worth the time it takes to read these. The next in the series is “Hell to Heaven: Journey to Wudang: Book Two” and will be released on October 30th.

      This series just keeps getting better and better with each book. I loved the Dark heavens Trilogy and this was an excellent start to Journey to Wudang. I am very excited to read more!
