Corrupted Crimson

Painting the Mists, Book 5

By: Patrick Laplante

Narrated by: Adam Verner

Some debts are never forgiven. Even in death...

When Cha Ming goes to help his friend Wang Jun’s ailing business in the capital, the last thing he expected was to compete with a seer. Their opponent is always one step ahead, and it’s sink or swim in this devil-infested marketplace.

To make matters worse, the king has been poisoned. Cha Ming is barely keeping him alive. If they don’t find a cure, a fight for succession is all but certain....

But the Song Kingdom’s issues run deeper. Evil spirits have sown deep seeds of resentment. Cha Ming and his friends must pull them out by the roots, because if they don’t, a civil war will be the least of their worries.

this is pretty good

some of these other reviews seem to picky. this is a pretty good book. can't stop listening

What a great story!

If you are picking up this series for the first time then I highly suggest starting with book 1 Clear sky. If you are a returning reader then I highly suggest acquiring this book in the series. If you have enjoyed the series so far then you will enjoy this book as well. *Spoilers* We get to follow Cha Ming and company go head to head with demons in a battle for the kingdom. We also get a glimpse at the challenges that our main characters will face in the future. I can't recommend this book enough.

I'm confused

How do you have budisum in a world where buda never lived otherwise I really like the series so far

Good listen

The pace and story was good a bit sad tho I can wait for the next one

Getting Good!!

This book was a bit of a game changer in this series. I was coasting along for the 1st few hoping It would get better. This book did not disappoint. Well written and engaging and I'm looking forward to moving on to the next one. I just hope it doesn't reverse to be like the first 3.
