Ich hatte lange überlegt, ein 2. Buch von Richter Di, einer historischen Persönlichkeit aus dem alten China, zu lesen. Und hab’s nicht bereut. Diese Geschichte war deutlich besser, als die vorherige. Sehr spannend, mit interessanten Denkweisen und kriminaltechnischer Aufklärung. Die Schreibweise war diesmal leicht, unserer Ausdrucksweise angepasst und besonders gut haben mir die Originalen taoistischen Weisheiten gefallen.
