Monkey Forest. Volume 1

For centuries, demons have tried to destroy humanity, and one day the strongest among them – the ruthless red monkeys – almost succeeded. The sacred warrior-manlios were able to seal them in stone idols. But today many have forgotten about... the sacred duty – to protect humanity from evil, and their dynasties increasingly resemble warring mafia clans. Yunsen Attwood is searching for a magical coin that should help him get rid of the demon tormenting his soul. But the talisman is needed not only by him. Jaeon Masumi, the master-manlio of the most ruthless dynasty, pursues his goal by any means necessary. Cassie Valeri has been used to staying out of sight of both demons and manlios since childhood, otherwise she would be killed. The backwater town suited Cassie for living until her older brother David, who works for an influential criminal clan, made a fatal mistake – he stole an ancient artifact from Masumi. The peaceful life is falling apart. Rumor has it that the red monkeys have returned… An exciting urban fantasy with Asian flavor. Under the cover of this novel, the fates of people, the criminal dealings of the mafia, and demons that are about to break free are woven together in a tight knot. Is it true that a common enemy unites? Cover artist: KOSH.
