It is an extremely rare occasion when we can witness a gripping story, true to life characters, and spine chilling adventure; as they join together just like the confluence of three mighty rivers. You will never forget it! Such an odyssey awaits your senses as you join Wu Linn, a not so normal Chinese teen, who embarks on a journey that appears destined for failure from the very beginning. The vast country of China is involved in a civil war, and at the same time foreign governments are imposing trade restrictions that cause thousands to become slaves of narcotics. Then the island nation of Japan seizes the opportunity to invade its crippled neighbor. In addition, Linn's father and grandfather have taken opposite sides in this conflict and the cultural system that surrounds them. And Linn himself? All his life he has been spared from hardship, since his family are land owners, masters of poor dirt farmers, or peasants. Under these circumstances, Wu Linn embarks on a mission to unite his estranged family, a goal that would try any adult, let alone an adolescent. He will meet many life threatening obstacles, and strange people on the way. Ruled at first by the environment around him, Linn gradually becomes the master of his own destiny. All of this, and Linn's dedication to its accomplishment, become his "Incredible Journey!" And we have yet to mention Nieh San!
