This is my second graphic novel by Yang and he's really great at bringing Chinese mythology into Western readers. This particular book focuses on dual identity; born in the USA from parents of foreign origin. We explore the concept of being a second generation American and what that means when you're not white and when you're not of European ancestry. I thought that the themes that Yang explored were fantastic, we have some mythology mixed with supernatural mixed with contemporary. Truly this is a coming of age comic about a self-conscious boy that has trouble accepting who he is in a Western world. His topics are clear and relevant; you really get a sense that he's doing his own self-exploratory work, internalizing many of his issues and working through them via his art. 
 Like the work I previously read, his art is simple and straight forward, we are here for the story not for the art. I did have some issues with the way it was laid out, mostly I found the way he set it up very confusing and I didn't understand what was happening until the end, this is a book that I theorize would be easier to understand upon a second read. I don't read enough Asian or Asian American writers so I'm glad I picked this up.
