Um... my chief takeaway from this book is that I needed to get a copy of 山海经, Classic of Mountains and Seas, stat, because all the chapters opened with a description of a mythical creature from it.
Ok, being serious now. Of course I've always liked mecha (my first love Gundam! Evangelion, not that much) or I'd not have read this. And the book fulfills that part very nicely, although... aiyaya the bookverse.
( a bit spoilery now )
