Wing Chun Gung Fu martial artist Kirin Rise took dystopian Chicago by storm in her debut adventure, Kirin Rise: The Cast of Shadows.Now she’s back for a whole new set of trials. Kirin is determined to bring hope in the midst of a bleak reality. Her recent victory in the Dome has attracted the attention of the most powerful man in the UFMF.
It is now 2033, and Kirin’s victory has given her global celebrity status. She can’t go anywhere without being mobbed by adoring fans. Kirin is happy that she has connected with the public but also wary of her newfound fame. It can turn on her in an instant.
People are looking for anything to distract them from the deteriorating conditions in America. Through their disillusions, the UFMF has become the largest corporation in the world. The head of the UFMF is busy perfecting a super-soldier serum that goes beyond ignoring pain.
At the same time, Kirin struggles with her family’s opinions about her fighting career and unanswered questions about her biological parents and their deaths in North Korea. Her mentor, Sifu, is dealing with trouble and trauma of his own. Fighting comes easy to Kirin, but matters of the heart are a different story!
Ed Cruz is an expert in the martial art of Wing Chun Gung Fu. He has been studying and practicing it for thirty-nine years and teaching it for eighteen. His Kirin Rise series uses the real martial arts philosophy as the basis for a dystopian YA thriller.
Cruz was trained in various martial arts for eleven years, but Wing Chun Gung Fu and its effective approach caught his attention. He met with Augustine Fong, a Wing Chun Gung Fu master, and has since devoted his life to mastering the art. Cruz is now an expert and has been publishing articles about Wing Chun Gung Fu for eighteen years.
Cruz was born in Manilla in the Philippines but immigrated to the United States at the age of three. His family resettled in Chicago, Illinois, and it has been his home ever since.
