This is the author’s first novel. If you came here from their other books, you can skip this one. It has a different style, and the ending is rushed.
[The highest and brightest, the closest and yet most distant. The setup takes a long time, and the heroine becomes an empress in the end. The heroine and hero won’t end up together, because he’s written as a realistic, down-to-earth man. I decided to let the heroine shine on her own.]
From the start, it’s hell: refugees are treated like ants, their lives worth no more than grass.
Watch as a humble refugee woman takes a man’s place and makes her move across the land, rising through medicine, politics, and the military... all the way to the throne!
