Rocketing action, eccentric and convincing characters . . . I'll be waiting for more from Mr Kristoff., Mythic creatures, civil unrest, and a strong female protagonist? I'm afraid I missed everything you said after "Japanese Steampunk." That's all I really needed to hear.
Jay Kristoff grew up in the most isolated capital city on earth and fled at his earliest convenience. He worked in 'creative advertising' for eleven years and has won several awards that nobody outside the advertising industry gives a tinker's cuss about. He is 6'7", has approximately 13,870 days to live, and can demand whiskey in almost a dozen European languages. He lives in Melbourne with his wife and the world's laziest Jack Russell. Stormdancer is the first novel in the Lotus War series.

The book has beautiful photographs of both the food and the landscape. The recipes are well written and explain what you need to do. It is also nice to have the letters to accompany the recipes.
A really fantastic look at South Africa through the eyes of three groups of South Africans. An easy , page turning novel by Lance Thorburn. Strongly recommended
