What does our ambition cost us?
I was enthralled by this retelling of Mulan's legend entwined firmly with fantasy and history.
It was initially a bit of a challenge to get into the story as the author throws us in at the deep end with terminology and customs that aren't explained, but I quickly picked up all the important threads and got absolutely wrapped up in the story and where the characters would end up.
