Boxers
by Gene Luen Yang
An interesting take on the Boxer Rebellion. I was pleasantly surprised by how fast-paced this was- there definitely wasn't much dense, historical fact in this graphic novel. However, what made up for that was the feeling behind this story- the inner struggles of Little Bao and whether he should listen to that voice in his head (Qin ShiHuang). I liked how the magical realism was incorporated, but I would have liked a touch more of history and depth added. With vivid illustrations and great palette use, this was an enjoyable read.
