From R. F. Kuang, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Babel, this collection includes her historical military fantasy trilogy—The Poppy War, The Dragon Republic, and The Burning God—drawing on the tumultuous history of twentieth-century China, infused with treachery and magic. In The Poppy War, war orphan Rin secures a place in Nikan’s elite military academy, where she uncovers her shamanic powers and the reality of ancient gods. As conflict brews between the Nikara Empire and the Federation of Mugen, Rin realizes her powers might be crucial to saving her people, but the cost of victory could be her humanity. The Dragon Republic sees Rin grappling with guilt after a battle atrocity, battling addiction, and the Phoenix god's demands. In her quest for vengeance against the Empress who betrayed her homeland, she allies with the Dragon Warlord. However, as she learns more about both leaders, the allure of the Phoenix’s power becomes increasingly difficult to resist. In The Burning God, after defending Nikan from invaders and confronting the Empress in a brutal civil war, Rin recognizes that true strength lies with the common people who view her as a goddess. Yet, as her influence grows, so does the Phoenix's dangerous voice, urging her towards destruction. “Mixing historical parallels of Chinese history, the themes of war, politics, and colonialism are balanced with terrific, flawed characters and amazing worldbuildi
