Lan and Bao are empathetic protagonists, and their world is lovely and full of little hints of intrigue—the Gray City, bloodpox, the river witch. This sample wasn't quite long enough to include the inciting incident described in the book's blurb, but I'm very curious to see where the magic and mystery of this story lead!
