 This is a well written debut novel. It was a bit slow in the beginning and I had trouble keeping track of the characters after taking a break from the book. (I had distractions in my life that forced me to put the book down for a time...otherwise I probably would have read the book straight through without confusion.) That being said, the book was full of adventure and was an enjoyable read. I especially liked how she made a strong female heroine without discounting the strength of the men in the story. It also peaked my interest in Chinese mythology. I will definitely be reading book 2.
