Ming Restoration: The Recapture of Taiwan

“When the transmigrator stops dreaming of changing history and is instead changed by history; when the struggle ends not with founding a dynasty and claiming the throne, but with quietly watching the sun set; when seven years of blood and fire ultimately become calm words written before a computer, this novel achieves both the deepest betrayal of transmigration fiction and its highest tribute. It tells us that some battles are not won by claiming a city, but by keeping one's soul upright; some homecomings do not mean returning to one's geographic point of origin, but finding one's spiritual homeland.”
