Reply to comment by JonPacNW in TIL about anti ninja floors in Japan. They were purposefully made to squeak as to alert people of intruders. by tpb01

I read two of them as an adult and can confirm that they aren't good. They're surprisingly boring. The characters are forgettable, the plot is predictable, and there isn't enough fantasy/magic to make the world interesting.

You're not wrong about predictble plot, but i quite liked the world bulding, and the grounded quality of the asian fantasy thats pretty much a staple of that ilk.

Forgettable... also yes.
