Rate this book
Jean Batsu dreamed of the impossible, and knew it would require the impossible journey to achieve it.

Batsu leads nearly a hundred progressive artists and engineers towards a towering impasse. On the other side, he claimed, they would create the greatest city the world has ever seen. Ambition pushes them up through jagged paths and cold, thinning air. The Murde Mountains and their ancient power, unrelentingly push back. As the group continues their pursuit of progress, they begin to question if the cost will be more than any of them have to give.

Valley of Progress archive 1 THE MURDER MOUNTAINS by Cory Sheldon
It tells the story of an obsessed industrialist named Batsu who lived in Meijune. He wanted to stand out from the rest and create his own city "a new society, one that would forever cultivate progress". He gathered a hundred artists and engineers in order to help him to make his dream a reality. They embarked on their journey with high ambitions. They want success, but success requires sacrifices.
Characters are well developed besides that the story is so captivating and intriguing. Easy to read, definitely a page-turning one. Great book for those who love reading about adventures.
