In the world of Zhang, the new charioteers are human-powered kites, racing above New York in a brief grab at glory. The new ultimate thrill for wealthy urbanites is to flirt with interactive death in illegal speakeasies. The opulence of Beijing has brought a new cultural imperialism. And a new generation lives in fear and hope. It is a new world in which Zhang is still finding his way...

Review by: tucker (Karl)
Dated: 2nd of January, 2004
Simple really. It bored me.
The characters had depth, but were low-energy... meaning they didn't really grab me, had no real focus and all seemed to be a little vague about their place in the plot.
I struggled to make it through the first 3 chapters, cruised through the next couple, and basically skimmed the rest of the book, I found it that watery.
Overall, not impressed, can't say much good, so won't say any more.
Random listing from 'Books'...
Each Geronimo Stilton book is fast-paced, with lively full-color art and a unique format kids 7-10 will love.
My cousin Trap was entering the Super Chef Contest, which determines the best cook on Mouse Island - and he was bringing me along as an assistant!
Slimy Swiss cheese, I don't know the first thing about cooking fancy dishes... and I didn't think Trap did, either. What an appetizing adventure!
