When the Tiger Came Down the Mountain by Nghi Vo

4.0

It’s insane how good The Empress of Salt and Fortune is, especially in comparison to the rest of the series. I still really like Cleric Chih as a main character, and love the weird situation/cool story-telling plot of the series, but the political intrigue of the first one really got me. This one is fun because it’s Chih vs a couple of tigers committed to eating them, which makes the stakes higher than in other books. It’s also fun because it seems that these can be read in any order without missing anything.
