It took me a while to get into this, the story felt oversimplified and cliche at the beginning. But I enjoyed it as it got more complicated. A nice modern twist on the classic tale of the Moon Lady. Haven't read many books that emphasize magic in Chinese culture. I didn't enjoy as much as the authors first book but still a good read.
