As I fell in love with all the Chinese mythology that Rachael Slate put down in book 1, Trancing The Tiger, it came as no surprise to me that I loved that aspect of this book just as much. This time, it's a bit more 'specialised' so instead of reading about the whole of the Chinese horoscope and mythology, you learn about one specific place - Li's place.
Li himself is a tortured hero which always goes down a treat with me. He is matched by Wen with the feisty attitude who stands toe to toe with him and won't take any rubbish. There are also cameo shots from Lucy and Sheng, as well as the Matchmaker.
The story is fast-paced and well thought out, the dialogue is sharp and sassy and it is hot! Altogether, another fantastic book from Rachael Slate. Definitely recommended.

Although, it references the TV show and previous books, it is a stand alone book. You don't necessarily have to watch or read to them understand or enjoy the book, it is recommended because of the enjoyable shinannegans and hijinks.
