Daughter of the Moon Goddess - Summary
In this enchanting tale inspired by Chinese mythology, we follow Xingyin, a young woman who has lived her entire life hidden on the moon with her mother, the exiled Chang'e. When her magical abilities suddenly manifest and threaten to expose her existence to the Celestial Emperor, Xingyin must flee her lunar sanctuary, leaving behind the only life she's ever known. In the dazzling Celestial Kingdom, she disguises herself and trains alongside the emperor's son, developing both martial and magical prowess while navigating complex political intrigue and an unexpected romance. As she strives to find a way to free her mother from exile, Xingyin becomes entangled in a dangerous game of power, love, and sacrifice that could either save or destroy the entire celestial realm.
