FEATURING STORIES FROM AI JIANG, SUNYI DEAN, TAO WONG and many others.
From mist-wreathed mountain sects and heartwrenching duels between lovers, to neon-drenched skylines where cultivators hack their bodies with cybernetic enhancements, this Wuxia/Xianxia-inspired anthology gathers sixteen tales of righteous heroes and heroines, wandering swords, cunning rogues, unrepentant villains, and martial arts masters who refuse to fade quietly into legend.
Spanning classic martial realms to modern-day underworlds and cyberpunk reimaginings, these stories honor the traditions of stories from the Wulin and the Jianghu, while carving bold new forms from them. Edited by Julia Vee.
Martial Hero is for fans of cdrama, martial arts, and the themes of seeking justice and overcoming oppression.
