Dragon Pearl

Dragon Pearl is an imaginative fusion of space opera and Korean mythology about a thirteen-year-old gumiho who leaves her planet to find her brother Jun???and clear his name after he's accused of deserting the Thousand Worlds Space Forces to pursue the powerful Dragon Pearl. I loved the premise of this book and thought it had some great elements, but it never quite came together as a whole for me. It bounced from situation to situation after Min left home, and there were too many characters with too little characterization for it to be an engrossing read. However, I suspect it will resonate more with middle grade age readers and those who enjoy plot-driven stories over character-driven ones.

My Rating: 5/10 ??? It's Okay
