    Detective series set in medieval China. A lot of thought has gone into writing the characters, as well as the medical / botanical side and the society and culture of that time. (Not saying it is 100% historically realistic; it sacrifices some accuracy for plot reasons.) Also a lot of comedy, mostly revolving around the main character Mao Mao (her name sounds like ‘Cat Cat’), who is extremely intelligent but also uncontrollably curious about poisons.
