This was an interesting read. Right away you can see the influences from Percy Jackson, but it doesn’t just copy everything from those stories it is a new take on the mythology is real genre. The way their powers are described is interesting, and learning about the different legends and myths of china and the varying cultures is especially fun throughout. It’s all woven together very organically and very well done. A pretty enjoyable read for fans of Percy Jackson.
