About the Book

Cina del sud, provincia del Fujian, 1679. Lunghi capelli neri, occhi scuri e abilità non comuni per una donna in piena dinastia Qing. Miiko, giovane guerriera cino-giapponese, lascia la casa della madre alla ricerca di nuove tecniche di spada. Dopo la morte dell'amico Weii, inizia un'avventura che la condurrà oltre i confini conosciuti della mente; ogni risvolto devierà un destino apparentemente già scritto. Intrighi, misteri e rivelazioni, in un romanzo dove il tempo sembra perdere linearità. Nel racconto delle avventure e disavventure dei protagonisti, si affrontano paure, tradimenti, amore e amicizia; ma attraverso la narrazione di storie emozionanti si indaga anche sui limiti del corpo e della mente. Un'intrigante viaggio dentro il mondo delle discipline più antiche delle arti marziali, come il Qi Gong e il Kung Fu, permette al lettore di immedesimarsi nei numerosi personaggi epici che vivono una storia ricca di colpi di scena e caratterizzata da riferimenti storici e leggendari. Non solo eroi ma esseri umani che cercano di trovare il loro percorso tra dubbi, fallimenti, drammi familiari e rinunce.
About the Author: Massimo Donato nasce a Messina nel 1970, diplomato in studi tecnici, ha frequentato per molti anni vari corsi di arti marziali presso la scuola Otzuka di Roma. Rimane folgorato, all'inizio degli anni 80, da vari anime (cartoni animati giapponesi) trasmessi dalle tv nazionali e private. Collezionista e grande appassionato di gran parte delle pubblicazioni comics americane Marvel e DC. Lettore di mitologia e cultura orientale, nonché amante di generi storici e fantastici. Dotato di una grande immaginazione e propensione al racconto, alla descrizione di ambienti e luoghi lontani. Inizia quasi per gioco a scrivere Miiko, per poi appassionarsi sempre di più alla sua scrittura, coinvolgendo la cara amica Michela Tranquilli. Nata a Frascati (RM) nel 1982, è un'artista marziale. Da tanti anni si allena con dedizione apprendendo molti stili. Nel 2014 ha aperto un corso di Kung Fu per bambini e ragazzi, trovando uno spiccato interesse nell'insegnamento. Amante dell'arte in tutte le sue forme, dipinge e disegna, in particolare si dedica ai ritratti, ed ha frequentato una scuola di teatro partecipando a diversi spettacoli anche da protagonista. Per seguire la passione e propensione artistica e creativa ha scelto come lavoro quello di grafica pubblicitaria, occupandosi anche di illustrazione, impaginazione e campagne pubblicitarie. Da sempre divoratrice di libri di tantissimi generi differenti, ultimamente si è espressa nella scrittura come dedica in particolare al suo Maestro di Kung Fu e agli amici.
