This is the first book that I read from David Gibbins and after reading this, I want to read and collect the rest of the series. Even though this is the 4th book, I didn't get lost because they can be read as standalones. His descriptions were vivid and it made me want to watch Indiana Jones since it's really like Indiana Jones! :D The best parts of Gibbins’s books are how thoroughly researched they are. The blending of real-world history and fictional ideas is expertly done, and he creates excitement and thrills around the artefacts and clues that the heroes uncover.You won't know me, Tigerclaw.

The historical context that the author provided was fascinating and gave the story a ring of truth. A fairly extensive Author's Note at the end explained what parts of the story were rooted in historical evidence and which were fictional. The author noted that the fictional aspects were based on reasonable extrapolations of the archeological record. Here we follow Kai, a Chinese girl who comes from a long line of explorers in a colourful graphic novel for younger children. The book includes pictures of other East Asian myths such as the nine-tailed fox and the Fenghuang (the mystical phoenix) and the nian monster. Her encounter with Monkey becomes a fun adventure and the illustrations are vibrant and fresh. This was a thrift store buy. I sometimes find new authors to love at the dollar store or the thrift store, so I took a chance on this one. I didn't hate it. And I can see that some might like this series. I didn't, though, and I won't be trying more.From the book series, there are some extra rules to follow when creating a warrior cats name, such as: Due to my love of history, particularly ancient history, I have watched a lot of history documentaries and read a lot of history books. Because of this, I have a pretty comprehensive understanding of western history, but this book focused more on eastern history, and therefore, covered a lot of topics that I don’t know much about. I love that Gibbins bases his stories on real obscure facts of history and then goes off on adventures that while they are sometimes more fiction than fact, they always make sense due to the historical basis that he starts with. I always learn something when I read his books, and I love learning new things, especially historical things. I bought this book because my son was born in the year of the Tiger. It’s one of a series of books which follow one of the Chinese zodiac animals. Dragon Mountain by Kevin Tsang and Katie Tsang (Simon and Schuster) the U.S. It's about Lizzie Chu whose wai gong (grandfather) is acting strange. It has cosplay (dressing up as your favourite comic character), a road trip, Chinese deities and sausage sandwiches
