peterpokeypanda 's review for:
Boxers
by Gene Luen Yang
I didn't like this one nearly as much as Saints, partially because I found it confusing, but that may have been partly because I was reading it in one sitting from 1 AM to 2 AM >.<. However, I think it is important to read as a companion; particularly, the story of the princess that Mei Wen tells near the end was necessary for me to understand Vibiana's vision at the end of Saints, and it added a lot of depth to Saints for me. I learned a lot about the history of the real life Boxer Rebellion/Uprising as a result of reading this book, and I was impressed by how historically accurate Yang remained. The more of Gene Yang I read, the more impressed I am by him.
