| From The Publisher* | Wear your gear. Bring your blades. Back your family. Fight for your life. MLK High School has collapsed into Kung Fu High School - where Jen B. and her brother, Cue, belong to one of two gangs still standing against the puppet principal and the drug kingpin who pulls his strings. Cousin Jimmy - a world-champion martial arts master of mythic stature - arrives in town after swearing to his mother that he'll never fight again. His rep precedes him and everyone's itching to see him kicked in" - Kung Fu's brutal initiation ritual. But he won't break his vow and defend himself, so Cue steps in when things go too far. Soon, a surprise counterstrike sends Kung Fu spinning toward one final, raging battle. Teachers flee, students break out full weaponry, and Jimmy must make a decision that will brand him a coward - or a hero. " |
| Review Quote* | "[A] tense, vicious, and heartfelt affair." |
| Review Quote* | "KFHS borrows its cartoon violence from Kill Bill, its urban decay from Fight Club, its mythic timelessness from The Crow." |
| Review Quote* | "Inconceivably graphic violence explodes with the feverish pace and clarity of a video game. A nightmarish, confrontational, and fascinating world." |
| Review Quote* | "You feel every blow, every break. Wnderful, tragic and ultimately cathartic." |
| Review Quote* | "Gripping-it feels like reading a scene from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon so intricate and graceful is the fighting description." |
| Review Quote* | "Action packed and emotionally charged. In step with Chuck Palahniuk and just as damn good." |
| Review Quote* | Gattis [is] the spawn of Tarantino and Cormier. Martial arts mayhem as detailed and balletic as a John Woo movie. |
| Review Quote* | "For those who love martial arts movies, such as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon… exhilarating." |
| Review Quote* | "A modern, violent epic, Kung Fu is a bloodied white-knuckle ride that never forgets the consequences of its actions." |
