5/11/2023 0 Comments Eon goodman![]() She’s tough, no doubt, but she seems way too eager to throw away her femininity in favor of being a boy. All very fascinating, and I’m ready for a Chinese New Year category on Jeopardy now!Ĭharacters are well-done, but I wasn’t sure how much I actually liked Eona. Possibly due to some boredom with the plot, I kept stopping to research things like the Chinese Zodiac and hua and eunuchs. ![]() With plenty of East Asian influences such as the Chinese Zodiac, dragons, and hua, Eon‘s worldbuilding is absolutely incredible. ![]() I’m also sad that there was no romance, but that really is probably better since most of the characters think Eona is a castrated 12-year old boy. Excellent world-building, but the action scenes are spaced between a mountain of info-dumping. ![]() It is definitely well-written, but must admit I skimmed some of the middle parts. REVIEW: Holy long book, Batman! I’ve had my eye on Eon for years in my library, and I finally sat down and read it. SUMMARY: With the help of a former Dragoneye, sixteen-year old orphan Eona disguises herself as a 12-year old boy in order to have a chance to become a Dragoneye. ![]()
