I loved the book and could hardly put it down. It was great the way the author wove 16th Century Korean history and shamanism into the daily life of a young lady living in the SF Bay Area.There were familiar parks and landmarks mentioned throughout in addition to the well researched and fascinating history of Korea 500 years ago.I marveled at how the author handled the transitions from ancient to current, from Kendra to NanJu.I hope there will be other books, not necessarily a sequel, but other books with such an intriguing theme. The author clearly did thorough research and also had to be clever, creative, and talented to have woven such an entertaining story.
