    A great book! It's about fleeing famine, featuring a male protagonist who kills Japanese invaders and traitors. The protagonist is decisive and ruthless, neither doting on his sister nor any other woman; he's all about women, but no female lead. He doesn't falter at the sight of women, doesn't become irrational, and doesn't shy away from them. He's a breath of fresh air. The protagonist has a ruthless and ambitious nature; he kills anyone who gets in his way. If his sister becomes an obstacle, he'll even kill her to prove his worth. If you like stories about fleeing famine and the "sister-killing" trope, this is a great book. Highly recommended!
