A look into Tibet,
This review is from: The White Lama: The First Step (Hardcover)
The place is Tibet, just as it was being opened up by "civilization". The story is about a Lama who is reincarnated so that he will have a vigorus young body when those who would destroy Tibet arrive. But he is reincarnated into a very unexpected body, the child of white foreigners. It was an interesting book, but a bit on the short side. I wish there was a paperback version, but oh well.If you are not in the least interested in Tibetan culture and religious beliefs then stay way from this one. However if you are interested you will probably enjoy this. Just keep this in mind, this book is pretty graphic. It shows several death scenes and a woman giving birth. I'm a big fan of graphic novels and I was very happy with this book. All in all an nice start into what is hopefully a great series.
