![]() ![]() Now I went into Pure Moon with zero expectations, so I wasn’t disappointed when the tempo of the novella slowed after this point. ![]() It’s a fantastic scene, with all the energetic bravado you’d expect. Pure Moon opens with an exhilarating introduction where the three main characters of Guet Imm, Lau Fung Cheung, and Tet Sang meet inside of a tearoom brawl. My knowledge of East Asian culture and Wuxia is sadly lacking, but this was in no way an impediment to my enjoyment. But, there is a deceptive amount of depth to Pure Moon and an endless ocean of charm. Sure, the plot is relatively simple- a planned deal goes south and must be salvaged- and yes, there are only three characters who are expanded upon. While The Order of the Pure Moon Reflected in Water ( Pure Moon) may look, and perhaps seem, a light read given its diminutive size and wry, breezy writing style-it’s anything but. ![]()
