That the novel does not reach for the easy Disney-esque dichotomy of Oriental good, Occidental bad is worthy of praise. It is at heart a coming of age story grounded in historical realism and for the most part delivers serviceable, escapist fun.
I'd like to thank the publishers for providing a copy to the Bookbag. We also have a review of [[No Less Than The Journey by E V Thompson]].
For more colonisation in the 19th century try [[The Shangani Patrol by John Wilcox]].
