Image is the cover for Of Jade and Dragons by Amber Chen. featuring painterly imagery of feudal style Asian buildings. The hero is seen from behind with her robe billowing. The dominant image is of a mechanical dragon. Review: I thought this book was going to be so predictable until the last 40-50 pages. Then it veered so hard I'm still digesting it. This book is part (Hua) Mulan, and part Cinder, with a heaping helping of original flair. I think Silkpunk may be my new favorite genre. Our intrepid main character is Ying... When her father has his life brutally cut short in front of her, Ying embarks on a quest of revenge. Infiltrating elite organisations and falling for forbidden souls are just some of the things awaiting anyone who choses to read this fantastic novel.
