Pam | 496 comments The writing is excellent, and I loved the world she created here, with dragons as the equivalent of stray cats. Kai's dragon rescue efforts are the same combination of cute and heart-breaking as modern animal rescue organizations, and his serious health issues add another layer of melancholy on top of that. The depiction of this slightly alt-universe Beijing is interesting and thought-provoking, and Eli adds a layer of sweetness, but the story ends just when you're ready for it to get started. Too short for me, but for those who love these kinds of fantasy novellas, I think this would be perfect.
