About this deal

Rin goes to talk to Chaghan, Altan’s lieutenant, who has finally returned from whatever it was he was doing. He takes her to a Divinatory and Rin casts a Hexagram. The Talwu speaks in riddles but Chaghan seems to understand and freaks out.

The trauma and psychological side effects suffered by all was shown so well. The old cast from book one has changed so much after everything they’ve endured, each coping (or not coping) in their own way. As a summary: Dark fantasy lovers, this series are getting so much better. I highly recommend this second book of this series!After saving her nation of Nikan from foreign invaders and battling the evil Empress Su Daji in a brutal civil war, Fang Runin was betrayed by allies and left for dead.

So now she can fly, which is pretty cool. Trying to set that aside though, I have thoroughly enjoyed the magic system in this book - it's fresh, fun, and a thrill to read about. But unfortunately it's quite literally the only original thing in this book. The Poppy War is a 2018 novel by R. F. Kuang, published by Harper Voyager. The Poppy War, a grimdark fantasy, draws its plot and politics from mid-20th-century China, [1] [2] [3] with the conflict in the novel based on the Second Sino-Japanese War, and an atmosphere inspired by the Song dynasty.

Rin and the Cike set out to take down the ship, but instead they’re captured by NEZHA WHO IS STILL ALIVE PRAISE THE LAWD. And you think you're on the brink of madness, you think that this moment is going to be when you finally snap, but it's not. One of my favorite tactical books about the nature of fighting and defeating your enemy is Sun Tzu’s Art of War. And I caught too many references of it, in this book which made me fall in love with it! Actually I already fell in love with the first book but second installment was like more ripen, juicy, well-rounded, detailed and perfectly developed! The story is getting better. It was one of my favorite debut novels of 2018 and the new one is already guaranteed its place on my top ten fantasy list!Mason, Everdeen (2018-05-02).
