There’s action, adventure, the beginnings of love, all that good stuff. Mulan travels to Diyu to save him a la Orpheus in Greek mythology. Except when Mulan defeats the Huns, it’s Shang that gets hurt.
You can probably tell by the summary but this book is a retelling (a more accurate fandom slang would be “canon-divergence”) of Disney’s Mulan. Of course I gotta support my Asians, Fa Mulan and Elizabeth Lim.
So I went to the library and one of the first books I found was Reflection by Elizabeth Lim. So it’s summer, right, and I’m gonna start college in the fall, right, and I thought, this is a good summer to read more. If you follow me on Twitter (shameless self plug lmao) you already know what’s up!!! “If we’re going to save Li Shang, we aren’t going to do it by listening to a grove of demonic bamboo.” – Shishi Will Mulan be able to save Shang before it's too late? Will he ever be able to trust her again? Or will she lose him-and be lost in the Underworld-forever? Moreover, Mulan is still disguised as the soldier called Ping, wrestling with the decision to reveal her true identity to her closest friend. With the help of Shang's great lion guardian ShiShi, Mulan must traverse Diyu to find Shang's spirit, face harrowing obstacles, and leave by sunrise-or become King Yama's prisoner forever. But King Yama, the ruler of Diyu, is not willing to give Shang up easily. What if Mulan had to travel to the Underworld?When Captain Shang is mortally wounded by Shan Yu in battle, Mulan must travel to the Underworld, Diyu, in order to save him from certain death.
