A compelling story of intergenerational blood feuds, savage politics, sorcery, and kung fu, JADE CITY is reminiscent of The Godfather.
Kekon is ruled by two criminal syndicates, one of which being the Kaul family. Rare magical jade, which bestows superhuman powers on people with the appropriate training and ancestry, is only produced there.
Today, in a busy post-war metropolis full of fast cars and foreign money, Green Bone families like the Kauls are primarily involved in commerce, construction, and the daily upkeep of the districts under their protection. Previously, the island was protected from foreign invasion by the Green Bone clans of honourable warriors wearing jade.
The conclusion of this clan battle will affect the destiny of all Green Bones and the future of Kekon itself as the long-simmering animosity between the Kauls and their biggest rivals explodes into open bloodshed in the streets.
