  1. And Li Po makes an appearance, complete with poetry quoting. Except he's Li Bai, so I didn't realize who he was until I'd looked it up. Apparently the guy has a ton of names. Li Po is how it was published in English.

    Slipping classical poetry into a kid's book? Smooth #XiranJayZhao ...
    And not so much that you just skip reading it all (looking at you Tolkien). It's actually plot!

  5. I partly read this series because of the moniker "Chinese Percy Jackson" for #XiranJayZhao 's #ZacharyYing and the #Dragon #Emperor. A bit of a slow start that's mostly uncomfortable because you're reading about racism & microaggressions. But then it gets interesting fast and you won't put it down until you're done.

    I finished it, then read it again. Several times.

    The use of #Chinese mythos and history is fascinating. It's a shame they were excluded from the Hugos. #books #bookstodon
