Death is a winsome lass in embroidered silk pants in this Russified romp about a reluctant virgin's quest to return the magic firebird's egg to its nest.
Genre Mash
Scheherazade meets Czar Nicholas II.
Lowdown
Complete with iron forests, Mongolian shamans, rapacious Tartars, and
lesbian nuns, Firebird has a skewering wit that's great fun to read; too
bad the characters are made of cardboard. On the plus side, we learn
that a properly trained nun should be fluent in the French kiss.
