G.P.Ching is a beautiful storyteller with a vivid imagination. Not every author will manage to put together an angry half-Chinese boy, a mysterious Indian girl, strange powers, secret gardens, Fallen angels and one big vegetarian cat, and pull it off.I really enjoyed this book, because it was that strange and eery. The concept of Fallen angels and those who protect humans from them is not unique, but the way G.P.Ching brings the story to life is enchanting.The characters are really well done and
There were parts of this novel I enjoyed, but overall there was far too much telling and not showing. This made the writing come across as amateurish at times. There were also inconsistencies in both characterization and plot on occasion. However, what bothered me most were the times when the characters didn't behave like real people.What did I like?
