The Dragon Republic
Translated by Mahmoud Atef
From the ashes of a destroyed empire, a new rebellion rises. A brilliant, brutal sequel where loyalty is tested, gods are chained, and freedom comes at a bloody cost.
About this book
Rin is on the run, haunted by the atrocity she committed to end the Third Poppy War and addicted to opium to drown out the vengeful voice of the Phoenix god inside her. But the war may be over, and the Empress who betrayed Nikan still sits on the throne.
Desperate for vengeance, Rin joins forces with the Dragon Warlord, who plans to overthrow the Empress and establish a democratic Dragon Republic. As Rin uses her terrifying shamanic power to win a new war, she learns that politics are far more dangerous than battlefields. In a game of shifting loyalties, dark magic, and ancient gods, Rin must decide how much of her soul—and her country—she is willing to sacrifice for victory.
