THE FIVE ANCESTORS BOOK 1 Tiger

Trained as a Kung Fu warrior, 11-year-old Fu has become a strong, skilled warrior; now he learns that what he's been led to believe is not the whole truth. KiKi Berera brings us into an adventure full of twists and turns. His Fu is strong, with a deep, impatient voice; Malao, his Kung Fu brother, is curious, fun-loving, and fast. These characters and more, including the snake and the dragon, are brought together by Grandmaster, whose concise enunciation characterizes the role he plays. Berera easily maintains the tension in this twisting plot, and his characters are so diverse that one wonders what his real voice sounds like. An exceptionally well-narrated book--great for pre-teens, but too graphic for some younger readers. W.L.S. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC 05/ JAN 06]
