Volume One of The Husky and His White Cat Shizun is a perfect introduction to the series, giving readers a perfect snapshot into the character and plot arcs that follow it. Despite clearly introducing its main character as what any reasonable person would consider to be an irredeemable tyrant in the first chapter, the story still forces the reader to empathize with Mo Ran to the point where they have more faith in him than he does in himself.
Throughout the series, his many crimes are not shied away from, but rather are embraced, using the complexity they create to ask thought-provoking questions on the nature of redemption— who deserves it, who can achieve it, and when a person can truly be considered redeemed— and intersperses them with commentary on accountability, the assumptions we make about other people, and the black-and-white nature of the criminal justice system. However, because it tackles these topics head-on, the trigger warnings are no joke. The series contains numerous graphic depictions of torture, death, and rape. If you think that you can handle that, then the story is more than worth it.
Husky has to be my favorite book series of all time. Beneath all of the darkness and tragedy is one of the greatest depictions of moral grayness that I have ever seen, a captivating world, and deep characters, all wrapped inside beautiful prose. One of only three books (at time of writing) to ever make me cry, Husky will grab onto your heart and refuse to let go.
