Free Pilgrim 2

In his first book, Free Pilgrim, published in 2016, author Nicholas Fung took his readers on a spiritual, mystical, and physical journey around the world, visiting countless amazing and inspiring sites both modern and ancient. In Free Pilgrim 2—the first in a series of sequels—he picks up where he left off. Whether he is visiting the island of Cyprus, with its rich history dating back ten-thousand years before the dawn of Christianity, or journeying from Moscow to Beijing by train, his photographs and insightful writing clearly illustrate both the divine and mundane nature of humanity. We are all one people, and even when separated by continents and millennia, that humanity shines through in our great works and common appreciation for beauty, reason, and the world around us. With seven new adventures to share, Free Pilgrim 2 will reawaken your drive to discover new places, learn about new cultures, and maybe even gain a better understanding of who we are as a human collective. While there is nothing more transformative than taking a physical pilgrimage to these incredible places, these books are about as close as one can get without booking your tickets and setting out on your own. But if you’re lucky, they will also inspire you to do just that.

A former assassin. An unspeakable past. The powerful people who want him dead. Retiring peacefully in Genshin Valley was never an option for Danzen Ravja, regardless of his intentions. To prevent any more attacks on the defenseless valley he now calls home, Danzen and his yokai companions head west to address the Diyu Brotherhood head-on, to face down two honorable assassins, and even more with no honor at all.Danzen plans to bend his echo upon his return, to cultivate his inner strength through the power of a fallen heaven. He holds a desperate faith that it will give him control over his demons, bring him closer to wholeness.But the extremes he must take to accomplish these tasks may end up killing him, and that's before his demon half-brother comes for him. Danzen is no stranger to life or death struggles, no shrinking violet to wilt under the pressure of risking his hide to do what must be done--but with other people's lives on the line, people he cares about and who care about him in return... Danzen must use his talents of dealing death to save their lives. Pilgrim is a xianxia cultivation series inspired by the Witcher books, John Wick films, the Inuyasha anime, the Preacher comics, and the movie Yojimbo.

Free Pilgrim is the story of one's man's journey down physical, spiritual, and mystical paths. In his photographs, taken in countries all over the world, he captures the mundane and the surreal, the modern and the ancient, and inspires us to go out and see them for ourselves first hand. With vulnerability and insight, Nicholas shares words and reflections from the heart, and with them conveys the joys and wonders to be found when one goes beyond their natural boundaries and truly starts to explore: The insignificance one feels in the presence of enormous statuary and ancient ruins, the size of which seem to defy logic and reason; the timelessness that comes from walking in the very footsteps of the Apostles, the Aztecs, the Mayans ... paths that have been worn smooth by travellers for countless generations; even the sense of belonging that comes from experiencing our modern world from a new or unique perspective. Whether it is a cultural or religious pilgrimage you're looking for, or simply an exotic adventure away from home, this travel book is sure to motivate and inspire you and get your feet pointed in the right direction.
