The bestselling debut fantasy inspired by the legend of the Chinese moon goddess.
A young woman's quest to free her mother pits her against the most powerful immortal in the realm, setting her on a dangerous path where those she loves are not the only ones at risk...
*THE INSTANT TOP 5 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*
THERE ARE MANY LEGENDS ABOUT MY MOTHER...
Raised far away on the moon, Xingyin was unaware she was being hidden from the Celestial Emperor - who exiled her mother for stealing the elixir of immortality. But when her magic flares and reveals her, Xingyin is forced to flee her home, leaving her mother behind.
Alone, powerless, and afraid, Xingyin makes her way to the Celestial Kingdom, a land of wonder and secrets. In disguise, she trains alongside the Emperor's son, mastering archery and magic, despite the passion which flames between them.
Vowing to rescue her mother, Xingyin embarks on a quest, confronting legendary creatures and vicious enemies. But when forbidden magic threatens the kingdom, Xingyin must challenge the ruthless Emperor, leaving her torn between losing all she loves or plunging the realm into chaos...
Inspired by the legend of Chang'e the Moon Goddess, this captivating debut weaves Chinese mythology into a sweeping adventure of love and family, immortals and magic.

Enthusing take on the Chinese Myth of the Moon Goddess
Even though the cover drew me to this book, the story did not disappoint. The author took the well-known myth about the Chinese moon goddess and wrote a beautiful story about the daughter that could have been. Xingyin, said daughter, was hidden from the Celestial Majesties, because her mother might've become immortal but much to the disapproval of the Empress. -

Let your mind ascend to the clouds
I fell in love with Tan's writing inspired by Chinese mythology, and her devotion to the magical description of the sceneries. Not only did she give us an brave and headstrong protagonist, but also a plot that never fails to test Xingyin's bravery through challenges and intrigues. It made me feel a bunch of emotions, stretching from happiness to devestation. It's the right choice for everyone seeking fantasy including violent sceneries of war just as much as the difficulties of a love triangle. -

What a book! I loved it!
Every time I thought, "What could come now? Everything is accomplished", the book surprised me with its twists and turns. The story is told in a soft tone at first. A beautiful story begins when the protagonist has to flee. She wants to save her mother and fights herself (often literally) through everything to reach her goal. The love story was beautiful yet heartbreaking. But this story is not just a story of new beginnings, but also of second chances. I am really thrilled for book two and I can just recommend "Daughter of the Moon Goddess"! -

What a beautiful book this was!...
What a beautiful book this was! A fantasy take on Chinese Mythology and all I can say it was breathtaking. The world building, the characters, the romance and just all the mythology aspects were perfectly blended together. Definitely cannot wait for the sequel to be released!
