Journey to the West

A classic by
“From a cosmic stone is born the Monkey King, whose defiance of Heaven sparks the greatest epic of the East.”

Born from a miraculous rock on the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit, the fearless Sun Wukong defies the realm of death and the celestial courts before setting out on the sacred pilgrimage to India alongside monk Xuanzang, Pigsy, and Sandy. Packed with sharp wit, ancient demons, divine battles, and profound spiritual allegory, this 16th-century Ming dynasty masterpiece is one of the pillars of world literature and the timeless fountainhead of modern heroic fantasy.
