“China Hands! To Me!” A green fog has engulfed the Wei River Valley. The First Emperor’s tomb is mysteriously rumbling. The Big Goose Pagoda is glowing like a lighthouse. And to blame? A bunch of Americans stranded in the consulate at Bei-jing, who, at the end of the last installment, came bursting through a portal in the People’s History Museum. “China Hands! To Me!” With that command, Rowden Gray has summoned his forces to return to the action - to the Dragon’s Pool in the shadow of Her hem, where the Jade Owl’s overlord commands an army of creatures, engineering the end of the world; or at least, the world, as we know it.
In this last book of The Jade Owl Legacy, our mixed bag of adventurers face their greatest challenge. They must negotiate the perils of the People’s government, the mysteries of the Palace of Broken Dreams, the dangers of the Ghost Lands and the mythic realm of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Their odyssey delivers them to the final showdown — the Battle of the Full Moon, where all mysteries are revealed and every threat is settled. What began as a Sinologist’s dream converges on everyone’s nightmare. The Jade Owl calls you, but so does the muster to arms. Heed them both, but answer only one. “China Hands! To Me!”
The Jade Owl Legacy is a five book series. The first book (The Jade Owl) introduces a peculiar quest led by Professor Rowden Gray and a rag-tag team who follow a mysterious thread of instructions to thwart an ancient Chinese prophesy. Instead, they managed to set off events, igniting the crisis. Two demons, which possess a relic known as the Jade Owl, each in turn, after eons of imprisonment, test their land legs among the living. In The Third Peregrination, the Destroyer takes his turn with wrath and fire. In The Dragon’s Pool, the Great Marshal takes his spin, preparing the way for a curious ritual that will restore the world to a prehistoric state. To combat these spirits, our heroes acquire extraordinary powers in an attempt to thwart destiny’s course. However, destiny is not easily thwarted. In The People’s Treasure, all hell breaks loose as our heroes are manipulated to serve destiny’s course to fulfill the prophesy. However, In the Shadow of Her Hem, they bounce back against insurmountable odds and fight to save life from ultimate destruction. From San Francisco to New York, from Florence to China with her many faces, the Jade Owl proclaims an ancient evil that intends to triumph. This is the story of the brave hearts who rise to the challenge to tangle with the dark forces of yin.

It is hard when you know the book you hold in your hands, or see on your Kindle will be the last book of its series.You try to slow the progress of your reading, but you look up and it's the wee hours of the morning and you just couldn't help yourself but read.
Edward Patterson is not only a prolific author, he has written my favorite book series, starting with The Jade Owl.
His background and research on Sinology is amazing. One could not hope for a more fact filled book about China and the archeology and people who with honor study and discover valuable treasures to share with the world.
Rowden Gray is a Sinologist, and while in San Fransisco, goes to his mentor and professor, John Battle's offices.
He meets Nick Battle, one of the most delightful characters written, who is John Battle's son (one of them). His partner is a delightful head drag queen in a club, Simone.
Nick has access to one of Battle's top discoveries, the Jade Owl, a magnificent little owl with powers that mortals can only imagine.
Soon, Rowden, Nick, and his band of China Hands go on series of journies to China, Italy, etc. for that little owl. Nicky Battle gets 'bonded' with the little owl, and he disappears, and becomes part of the Destroyer.
In the fifth book of the series, all China Hands have gathered together to hopefully save Nicky. This is a meteoric book - going in speed of sound action. It melds dimensions, times, legendary characters, the terra cotta army, and literally all heck breaks loose! Mr. Patterson leads us into the best adventure of them all - Do the China Hands live? What happens to the characters we have come to love and be protective of?
To describe the ending, what would not do it justice. Just know that The Jade Owl Legacy - the five books, it one of the best reads I've ever read, and that says a lot coming from me - I am a huge fan and will reread from the start the wild adventure from The Jade Owl.
Do I recommend this book and anything Edward Patterson has written?? You bet!! I wanted to study archeology and ended up an English major. But after reading this series, in my heart, I am a China Hand!!!!!!
Must reading!

In the Shadow of Her Hem The Jade Owl Legacy Book 5 edition by Edward C Patterson Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This book was a great wrap-up to this series of wonderful reads! Knowing that it was the final book made me want to read more slowly and make it last longer, but at the same time, I could not put it down because so many things were happening and there was so much excitement that I just HAD to continue. WOW!
Thanks so much Ed, we, your fans want to tell you that your writing keeps us going late into the night.
Ed is also finally learning how to use the 2 words "past" and "passed" - I only noticed 2 distracting errors in this latest book. Keep studying their use Ed.
Well written. Great storyline. Fun characters.
Just finished reading this fifth and final book of the series and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the full force of the Jade Owl series. I couldn't stop reading from book to book until I was finished. This series is a must read in my opinion.
Like the rest of the Jade Owl series, this one is filled with adventure and magicial mystery. The five China Hands have grown to a bigger band with the chi influencing many friends. All are needed to help save the "day" and all do there jobs. Of course a few villains come into play. Audrey finally has a role to play( I've been waiting for her to take an active part). The ends comes with a few surprises and as we all can see, day is still here. This is one series I have really enjoyed and can recommend to all.
It is hard when you know the book you hold in your hands, or see on your will be the last book of its series.
You try to slow the progress of your reading, but you look up and it's the wee hours of the morning and you just couldn't help yourself but read.
