This is a beautifully written book, the Prowse of which has a cadence to it that makes it a joy to read and that causes the pages to fly by.
Both the characters and plot are wonderfully engaging and enchanting in this story that follows Xingyin, the daughter of the Moon Goddess, whose existence is unknown by the Celestial Kingdom, and who has to flee from the moon when her mother fears her existence might be revealed.
Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, Xingyin ends up in The Celestial Kingdom as a companion to the Crowned Prince, who along with everyone else is unaware of who she is.
Her life takes many turns over the following years, and she is involved in several dangerous and exciting adventures, all of which she tries to use to her advantage to help her gain her mother's freedom.
All the events flow naturally, with nothing seeming to be forced to suit the plot. The interaction of the characters is also very natural and the various personalities develop in a believable and engaging manner.
The whole book is just wonderfully crafted and delivers an amazing story that is engaging from start to finish.
