it was Different

This book was total different. It was okay, but it was definitely different than and I was expecting say chinese version (twisted) basically of the phantom of the opera... with odd dreams and the monkey king making appearances... Moohahahaha but I did enjoy it, it was a good story.And a good narrator...

A captivating gothic fantasy rich with Chinese mythology

Megan and her mother have been moving from place to place for what seems like forever. from one bad relationship to another, Megan's mother is just trying to survive. after surviving another abusive boyfriend, her mother finds them lodging at a historic Chinese opera house.

The building is alive with detail. The mythology is carefully doled out as the story proceeds. The inevitable conclusion plods along, mixing elements of horror and enchantment. This is the type of book that keeps you saying, "Just one more chapter."

Natalie did an amazing job in her narration and I continue to pick up audiobooks based solely upon her involvement. The story came alive with her words.
