4-6Five Ancestors series.
This first installment of the projected series introduces five orphans raised together as brothers at a Buddhist temple in seventeenth-century China. This story features Fu, or Tiger, who is charged with retrieving ancient scrolls stolen from the temple. Fast-paced and action-packed, this Kung Fu adventure doesn't offer much depth, but the detailed (and vivid) fight scenes will enthrall fans of the genre.
