Joan He’s take on the Chinese classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms is filled with twisty strategies and plot zigzags, as well as immensely fascinating characters. Set in a fractured realm with three armies vying for control, the novel follows military strategist Zephyr. Forced to infiltrate an enemy camp, Zephyr’s distrustful friendship with her counterpart strategist threatens to undo all her work so far. Meanwhile, the enemies outside the camp are growing, both human and otherworldly, and it will be all Zephyr can do to face them.
