Assassin's Creed: The Ming Storm (刺客信条:大明风云,, Cìkè Xìntiáo: Dàmíng Fēngyún) is a novel written by Yan Leisheng, the first in a trilogy of novels focused on the Chinese Assassin Shao Jun.[1]
The novel was released on 31 March 2019 by Newstar Press in China.[2] The French version published by Mana Books was released on 1 October 2020.[3] The English version by Aconyte Books will be released on 1 June 2021.[4]
Blurb
The Ming dynasty becomes a battleground for the Brotherhood of Assassins and the Order of the Templars in this blockbuster action novel from a previously unexplored part of the beloved Assassin's Creed universe.
China, 16th century. The Assassins are gone. Zhang Yong, the relentless leader of the Eight Tigers, took advantage of the emperor's death to eliminate all his opponents, and now the Templars hold all the power. Shao Jun, the last representative of her clan, barely escapes death and has no choice but to flee her homeland. Vowing to avenge her former brothers in arms, she travels to Europe to train with the legendary Ezio Auditore. When she returns to the Middle Kingdom, her saber and her determination alone will not be enough to eliminate Zhang Yong: she will have to surround herself with allies and walk in the shadows to defeat the Eight Tigers.[4]
Development
On 22 February 2021, through marketing of the English translation, it was revealed through a press release by Aconyte Books and Ubisoft that The Ming Storm was the first novel of a non-canon trilogy starring Shao Jun. The English version is being translated by Nikki Kopelman.[4]
