RAISED TO OBEY. DESTINED TO REBEL.

The Poppy War meets Six Crimson Cranes in this gripping crossover fantasy, inspired by Mulan and Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The Three Kingdoms are at war, but Meilin's father refuses to answer the imperial draft. Instead, he plans to sell Meilin into marriage to fund his opium addiction. But when she discovers her husband-to-be is violent and ill-tempered, she realises she needs to take matters into her own hands.

The very next day, she disguises herself as a boy and enlists in her father's place.

As the very future of the Three Kingdoms hangs in the balance, Meilin will need to decide who to trust - Prince Sky, her commander, who inspires her respect and love; the sea dragon spirit, which has the power to grant her an impossible magic; or an infuriating enemy prince who makes her question everything she once knew - about her kingdom, her loyalty and her own heart.
