Drunken life, dreamless death.
What lies between life and death is what truly matters.
A streetwise young man, ill but far from weak, gifted in the art of war; a noblewoman from a military family who yearns for freedom and revolution; a dissipated, disillusioned descendant of the former dynasty... At the brink of a world turned upside down, these young people struggle and drift. Their paths cross and part, leading each toward their own fate, as they flourish with fierce vitality on the road to death.
Here are mountains and seas, gunfire and smoke, countless vibrant souls and lives, and a story worthy of seven cups of rough wine.
