wishanem 's review for:

Under Heaven by Guy Gavriel Kay
2.0

This book never really sucked me in. It wasn't unpleasant, but it also wasn't particularly exciting, intriguing, funny, or dramatic.

If you're interested in a slightly fantastical story in a Chinese-analogue setting, this might be your bag. Otherwise, pass it up.

My recommendation is instead to read Barry Hughart's "Bridge of Birds", which is a humorous and more folktale-flavored take on the same sort of Chinese Fantasy.
