Fireheart Tiger

1.5 stars you know i did really want to like this but unfortunately it's not very good u__u i understand that it's hard to pack everything you want to explore in a barely 100-page novella, but the book felt underwhelming to me. prose was amateur-ish (no subtlety, remember show don't tell?) and some dialogue/story beats were a little corny.

however it WAS nice to see all the viet names with the accents and everything. i've not read any viet-inspired fantasy stuff before which is the main reason i picked this book up.

so... even though i didn't like it very much i appreciate what it was trying to do, and again it's just nice to see viet characters even if in this case they're bland and frustrating. OH WELL
