Omg. I can’t imagine this series ending with the next book. The Dragon Republic is a rollercoaster of emotions. One minute Rin is in desperate need of rehab, the next, she’s all powerful. Then she’s not and so on. Also… what the fuck Nezha?!!?
The world building continues to amaze as R.F. Kuang weaves a politically and socially devastating tale of colonialism, war and peace.
