Alt-Chinese adventure tale from Sherwood Smith

The first in Sherwood Smith's new xuanhuan series, The Phoenix Feather, is out today. This is a **wonderful** series, one of the best things I've read all year: excellent characters, adventure, heroism, mystery, beauty, human insights, all in a super well-realized alternative China.



It's available both in paperback and as an ebook--read more about it and find links for placing an order at her post. Highly, highly recommended!
