About this listen

The exciting end to The Poppy War trilogy, R.F. Kuang's acclaimed, award-winning epic fantasy that combines the history of 20th-century China with a gripping world of gods and monsters, to devastating, enthralling effect.

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.

Despite her losses, Rin hasn’t given up on those for whom she has sacrificed so much – the people of the southern provinces and especially Tikany, the village that is her home. Returning to her roots, Rin meets difficult challenges – and unexpected opportunities. While her new allies in the Southern Coalition leadership are sly and untrustworthy, Rin quickly realizes that the real power in Nikan lies with the millions of common people who thirst for vengeance and revere her as a goddess of salvation.

Backed by the masses and her Southern Army, Rin will use every weapon to defeat the Dragon Republic, the colonizing Hesperians, and all who threaten the shamanic arts and their practitioners.

As her power and influence grows, will she be strong enough to resist the Phoenix’s voice, urging her to burn the world and everything in it?

How closed is to the endless history of our lives

Interesting history and close to the reality where everybody think they know how to fix the world forgetting that a change requires sacrifices from all … and some times more from the promoter of the change.

Gut wrenching twists and turns

Kept me on my mental toes right through and I found myself pining and wishing for a sequel the closer I got to the end.

This series has more potential for expansion/exploration, quite a fascinating world.

Worst MC character ever

The MC is easy to hate, it’s like a 10 year old girl only having two emotions, angry or very angry.
