BOOK 1

This story isn’t about Sun Wukong, the Monkey King—it’s about his daughter, Meilin. Only, she doesn’t know she’s the Monkey King’s daughter. In fact, she doesn’t know she’s half-monkey at all.

As far as Meilin knows, she’s an ordinary 14 year-old high school freshman from Midland Hills, California, facing all the problems that bright young girls face at that age—flakey girlfriends, zits, too much homework, bad hair days, obnoxious boys…

But all of that changes when her ancient past catches up with her...

BOOK 2

As Meilin continues to struggle with her new powers and identity, an act of betrayal in her ancient past, compounded with the distraction of a new boy in school, forces Meilin to question her very purpose in life.

Events come to a head when an evil foe comes forward in Time to seek revenge, forcing Meilin to choose which Path she should follow. Hanging in the balance—the survival of the entire Demon Monkey Kingdom.

"The Monkey King's Daughter" is the story of Meilin, who soon finds out that she is the daughter of the mythical Sun Wukong. With that knowledge, she finds herself missing the days when homework and boys were the only thing on her mind. A fun mix of classical Asian mythology and a charming young adult read, "The Monkey King's Daughter" is quite the entertaining read, highly recommended. —Midwest Book Review A really imaginative story - it moves along at a great pace and is very compelling. I love the coming of age elements, and how the ancient story is woven into the contemporary one... —R. Lawton I read the book and I loved it! It was so much fun to read. I'll definitely be reading this one to the students in my classroom. —D. Hartman (teacher) I think it's perfect for kids between 8 and 12 years of age. The writing is descriptive and very fast paced. And since today's kids like to be entertained, it's nice to know there are good books like this for kids to enjoy. Can't wait for the next one in the series. —D. Mansour I originally thought I'd read one chapter a night —but I couldn't put it down. I had to read it all. Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep that night.—N. Dawson
