A review by calistareads
Starry River of the Sky by Grace Lin

4.0

Grace Lin takes stories from Chinese Mythology and gives them her spin on the story. Our story is set in a remote village at an Inn, basically at the end of the Kingdom. A child has run away and found employment at an Inn. Then a fascinating women joins them. She is a story teller and she encourages Rendi, the boy, to tell a story for each one she tells. They tell many tales as the story goes on and we realize they somehow weave together.

The is a story of a magistrate and the story of a couple separated by seeking immortality. I don't want to give too much away. If you enjoy mythology, then I think you will enjoy this story. I love Grace Lin's ability to spin a story and share her culture with the world. I love these myths and I think Grace has one more and I will find a way to read that one too.
