Jade, the mysterious and magical substance once exclusive to the Green Bone warriors of Kekon, is now known and coveted throughout the world. Everyone wants access to the supernatural abilities it provides, from traditional forces such as governments, mercenaries, and criminal kingpins, to modern players, including doctors, athletes, and movie studios. As the struggle over the control of jade grows ever larger and more deadly, the Kaul family, and the ancient ways of the Kekonese Green Bones, will never be the same.

The Kauls have been battered by war and tragedy. They are plagued by resentments and old wounds as their adversaries are on the ascent and their country is riven by dangerous factions and foreign interference that could destroy the Green Bone way of life altogether. As a new generation arises, the clan’s growing empire is in danger of coming apart.

The clan must discern allies from enemies, set aside aside bloody rivalries, and make terrible sacrifices... but even the unbreakable bonds of blood and loyalty may not be enough to ensure the survival of the Green Bone clans and the nation they are sworn to protect.

Fonda Lee

Fonda Lee

In modern fantasy, few voices have reshaped the genre’s landscape quite like Fonda Lee. Her worlds pulse with grit and elegance, pulling readers into stories where family loyalty clashes with power, where battles carry philosophical weight, and where magic feels inseparable from lived tradition. It is this ability to blend cinematic action with emotional depth that has made her one of the most compelling writers in speculative fiction today.

Lee’s path to storytelling wasn’t a straight one. Born in Calgary and educated at Stanford, she spent years navigating the corporate world before trading business strategies for the art of building entire fictional societies. Her martial arts training, as she holds black belts in both kung fu and karate, has shaped her writing as much as her love of crime dramas and wuxia cinema, lending her fight scenes a visceral realism and her characters a profound sense of discipline and purpose.

Her breakout came with Jade City, the opening chapter of the Green Bone Saga, a sweeping epic of clan warfare, honor, and power that earned the World Fantasy Award and multiple Aurora Awards, with Time magazine naming it one of the 100 best fantasy books of all time. Across its sequels, Jade War and Jade Legacy, Lee expanded her richly imagined world of Kekon into an intergenerational saga about legacy, ambition, and the cost of power. Her storytelling is as patient as it is unflinching, building intricate politics and unforgettable characters while never losing sight of the personal stakes at the heart of the conflict.

Beyond her adult fiction, Lee has made her mark in young adult science fiction with Zeroboxer, Exo, and Cross Fire, and in shorter works like the acclaimed novella Untethered Sky. Each project reflects her trademark blend of thoughtfulness and momentum, whether she is writing about futuristic prizefighters, alien-occupied Earth, or mythic creatures stalking the wilderness.

Fonda Lee’s work resonates because it is more than escapism. Her stories examine what it means to live by a code, to carry the weight of heritage, and to carve out one’s destiny in the face of unrelenting pressure. With every book, she invites readers into worlds that feel at once mythic and intimately real, places where power is contested, family is everything, and every choice has consequences.
