I didn't quite 'get it.' But probably a good book regardless.

This was the first book I read on Taoism, and I LOVED it. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to find out more about Li Chang and Taoism. It's insightful, yet entertaining.

Interesting and funny.

Once you get past what this story is about, you can see the humor in it. Definitely not your same run of the mill story.
