A review by rfwads
The Spirit of the Dragon by William Andrews

5.0

I can not say enough good things about this book or the series, I absolutely loved them! If you enjoy historical fiction, I HIGHLY recommend this series to you. As an American, I was never taught in history class about the events that happened/took place in and around Korea during the late 1800s to early/mid-1900s. This series was an eye-opener for me. William Andrews does an incredible job tying the books together and shedding light on parts of history that have been buried. The main female characters are very strong. They share their stories and the stories of their ancestors to help make sure that we do not make the mistake of repeating history.

The Spirit of the Dragon is the third book in the Dragon series. A modern-day Romeo and Juliet, The Spirit of the Dragon tells the story of a young couple, a Korean woman and a Japanese man, who are forced to marry. As a young interracial couple, they are thrown into society and we, as the readers, follow their journey through years of war, bigotry, and poverty.
