Foxy Tails reads like a cross between fantasy and reinspired fairy tale, with the mythology of the Chinese nine-tailed fox. That gave it an ancient feel, like that of a story that extends beyond linear time. The settings were beautifully written, bringing the reader into the world effortlessly. The characters, too, were wonderful, each with their own stories and quirks. Huli, the fox, has had a rough life, living on the fringes of society with his best friend Ling Ling, whom I adored, even though she was a supporting character. Xiao Ying is almost as alone in the world, on his own journey of vengeance. The dynamics and bonds between them are beautiful as they embark on their joint quest.
