Negative Positive
Title: Evocative imagery, good mystery, great characters
Review: I've held on to my paperback copy of this book for 20 years. I reread it every couple of years, and am happy once again to watch the magic happen. Ancient Chinese myths come to life, along with rascals, palace intrigue, beautiful maidens (and some who you don't turn your back on!.) Very few fantasy books reach this level of creativity and surprise, plus excellent plot and pace. Find this book, read it, and you'll be pleased.
