Synopsis

Wandering cleric Chih of the Singing Hills travels to the riverlands to record tales of the notorious near-immortal martial artists who haunt the region. On the road to Betony Docks, they fall in with a pair of young women far from home, and an older couple who are more than they seem. As Chih runs headlong into an ancient feud, they find themselves far more entangled in the history of the riverlands than they ever expected to be.

Accompanied by Almost Brilliant, a talking bird with an indelible memory, Chih confronts old legends and new dangers alike as they learn that every story—beautiful, ugly, kind, or cruel—bears more than one face.

Goodreads review by Tim on December 20, 2022

I can’t believe I missed that this had come out. I saw a friend had reviewed it and I literally stopped what I was doing and drove to a bookstore to track it down. I gave the first two books 5/5 stars and declared them both amazing reads and the fact that I missed reading this the day it came out wa......more

Hmm, this is very different from The Empress of Salt and Fortune (I haven't read When the Tiger Came Down the Mountain yet). I really like the change of narrative style: this book still keeps the story-within-a-story structure, but at the same time, there's actually a full-fledged plot for the outer......more
