The Poppy War Paperback
The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang is a searing and unflinching fantasy debut that blends the brutality of military conflict with mythological depth, inspired by 20th-century Chinese history. Praised as one of the most powerful and original grimdark fantasy debuts in recent years, this award-winning novel introduces readers to a richly constructed world of gods, monsters, and war.
At the heart of the story is Rin, a war orphan who earns a place at the prestigious Sinegard military academy through sheer determination. But the path she walks is far from glorious. As she discovers her shamanic abilities and forges a connection to the gods, Rin is forced to navigate a collapsing empire and a war that demands unthinkable sacrifices. With the return of a ruthless enemy nation, Rin must decide how far shes willing to goand what shes willing to become.
This first book in the critically acclaimed trilogy is a brutal, visceral exploration of power, vengeance, and identity. Its a must-read for fans of grimdark fantasy and morally complex heroines.
