Pendulum of Fate, Part 2

Painting the Mists, Book 15

By: Patrick G. Laplante

Narrated by: Adam Verner

To help his allies, he’ll make the world his enemy.

Cha Ming is back in Verdant Crossroads, and for now, his allies are safe. The Thread Seer has chosen to honor her promise and has begun crafting a new body for the Monkey King.

Her seclusion has not gone unnoticed, however. Verdant Crossroads’ traditional allies are giving them the cold shoulder, and their neighbor, the Republic of Fendal, is now eyeing their territory.

It falls to the junior Thread Seer, Clever Dusk, to cobble together a defense—and to Cha Ming, her teacher, to help her. As a craftsman, Cha Ming has no trouble finding allies. But he and his friends are much better at finding trouble instead.

But maybe all the chaos they’ll cause is a good thing? Cha Ming’s research on rankers and Daoism infringes on the domain of the gods. The last thing he needs is for Mendin’s deities to notice him.

Another Hit

Huge fan of the series! Please keep them coming!

There was little to no personal progression for our MC in this novel but we finally get to see a glimpse into the greater karmic tapestry. There were some surprises that surpassed my expectations of where the story was going.This book concludes the Inkwell plane war story arc and the prologue has me itching to see where fate will land The Painter next.

Great sequence, great story! Draws you in

This one wasn’t the sometimes predictable meditate and level up installment. My best part was the WAR! The change of perspective from face-to-face, to birds-eye view during the battles was so much fun! Great job !

Masterful!!!

I loved this book and seeing the Mc evolve the way and adapt how he performs on the battle field is awesome
