The story of Master Liu and his protege, Pei Ke crescendos in this sequel, with compelling scenes of action and emotion as the lives of the characters from Ancient Travels and Ancient Knowledge continue to evolve and intertwine. The story culminates with the sharing of Liu's secret knowledge of Chinese medicine to his inner door students. In his customary writing style, Richard A. Peck weaves the art of teaching into his novel. With focus on the internal styles of Tai Chi Chuan, Pa Kua Chang, and Hsing-Yi Chuan, this book is a gem of information, strategy, and application techniques for martial arts enthusiasts. Richard clarifies the qualities that prevail when one lives the way of the warrior. He further develops the life-to-life connection of the master-disciple relationship, the process by which the "refinements" are passed on to students who prove themselves worthy and capable of incorporating the intricacies and wisdom of the martial arts. Richard A. Peck brings the traditional learning process to life because he writes from the heart of his experience. He and his wife. Iva, are "inner door students" of Grand Master Lu Hung Bin. Richard practices Traditional Chinese Medicine at the Integrated Center for Oriental Medicine and teaches Chinese internal martial arts at the Tai Chi Center.
