Sometimes the greatest power is knowing when not to use it.
In the twilight of the Ming Dynasty, court entertainer Li Meiyan discovers she carries the blood of heaven. Descended from those touched by a celestial meteor, she awakens powers that bend time, dissolve metal, and command the earth itself.
But with power comes peril. Kidnapped by rival factions and torn between two princes who love her, Meiyan must decide whether to rule, to serve, or to sacrifice everything she cherishes. From the glittering halls of the Forbidden City to epic battles against otherworldly enemies, her journey weaves together wuxia martial arts, supernatural destiny, and passionate romance.
Great for fans of The Poppy War and She Who Became the Sun, this tale of love and sacrifice what does it truly mean to rule?
