Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Really exciting listen
I actually did not know much about the mythology and legend that fuels this story, so it was incredibly fun to catch up. The pace is excellent. The characters are well-rounded. And the narrator is awesome. This is a delight.

Decent fantasy horror
But are there Chinese Samurai? Seems like for a story of Chinese mythological influences there was a lot of Japanese influence.

A good story
There were a few distracting quirks about the story that threw me off such as the mixing of cultural histories and mythologies. It didn't hampper my enjoyment of the story itself though it did have me double checking Eastern history.
The use of descriptive metaphor shines when the scene calls for it but it does overall feel a little overused. it slows pace of the story somewhat.
When the story shifted into horror is when it gets the most interesting.

A gripping narrative that skillfully intertwines elements of suspense and the supernatural.

Very Unique Twist at the End
"Rising Sun: Echoes of the Damned" by Satori Saru plunges readers into a world brimming with darkness and demonic forces. The legendary Monkey King, Sun Wukong, takes center stage alongside a band of warriors, forging an unlikely alliance. Redemption, sacrifice, and the fight against inner demons weave a compelling narrative.
Facing the Echoes of the Past
The novel thrives on the concept of a world haunted by a malevolent past. This lingering darkness serves as a constant threat, adding depth to the characters' struggles.
A Fellowship Forged in Fire
The bond between Sun Wukong and his companions is a central theme. The review could explore how their dynamic develops, mentioning any interesting character interactions or internal conflicts they grapple with. Does the novel delve into their motivations and backstories, creating a well-rounded cast?

Interesting story you haven’t heard before
I really liked the fact that the style was completely new to me. The book was short about 4.5 hours but that was perfect for my work out and before bed listen. I would have never thought a samurai novel would find its way into my collection but I’m glad I have it a shot! Worth the listen and I give it a solid 5 stars.
