Strange alliances definitely characterizes a lot of what happens in this book, as each brother is joined (mostly begrudgingly) by a host of unexpected characters. The story does go a bit off the rails, but I think it's meant to because it is modeled after epics, which also tend to go off on random character-adding tangents. The watercolor art style is such a treat, and I look forward to the next book. #Comic #Chinese

Kenyazero Used for #OwlHouseReadathon Lily "complicated sibling relationship" and for #GottaCatchEmAll Corvisquire "favorite genre" and "second book in a series.” @PuddleJumper 8mo
PuddleJumper Amazing! 8mo
Clare-Dragonfly I love the artwork! 8mo
Kenyazero @Clare-Dragonfly The art is a huge treat in this one, for sure! It‘s worth reading for that alone! (The story is fun too, of course) 8mo

I love her writing, she takes me to a magical place that no other book has taken me. I love the feel of story. The romance, the magic, the scenery.. I highly recommend!!! #spinthedawn #elizabethlim #mythology #Japanese #Chinese

This was intense and awesome! I loved seeing historic China reimagined in a sci-fi context with epic mechs. The characters are strong, as are their motives, and the world building is vivid. I also love that everything I wanted or predicted happened, from relationship development to two major twists toward the end. #LGBTQIA #Chinese #SciFi #Mech

I thought this would be a good pick to see the parallels of #social #culture with now but it started with a long chapter on the defeat of the #Native Americans... next chapter is on #Chinese immigration. Maybe I‘m not getting the organization yet?

Meanwhile, #migraine while working a trade show and got here early for an extra insult...may have to switch to romance when I get home tonight.

CocoReads Ugh, feel better. I rode the migraine train earlier this week. I‘d say some romance is just what the dr should order! 5y

I absolutely loved this little gem of a book.
So much history, art and culture.
Chinese and Japanese subjects are always my favourite and I love learning about the deep rooted history's.
