The book reveals the tyranny in Shang Dynasty and dissolute life of King Zhou and his Queen Da Ji, tells the story of the late-bloomer, JIANG Ziya, a famous strategist, and King Wen in the Zhou Dynasty. This book centers on the battles between two Dynasties. Gods and demons are involved in those battles; they take their sides and engage in psychic battles. The end of the story is that the Shang Dynasty has been overturned, JIANG Ziya has been apotheosized, and King Wu turned a new page of Chinese history. Best-selling novel in Amazon.cn, has been sold million copies.
The Investiture of theGods is one of my favorite books, I have watched the animation and series adapted from the story. It’s a great pleasure to read the original work.

I have watched the series adapted from the story in my childhood. Reading the original work brings back lots of childhood memories. This masterwork is one of a kind.

I did not watch the series adapted from the story, but I still remember the comic books I have read during my childhood. It’s my first time to read the original work. This book tells the story in an intriguing and humorous way, which is comparable to Wang Shuo (a famous writer in China). The description of Nezha (a mythological character in the story) is humorous. And the characterization of Da Ji is vivid. Highly Recommend!!
