This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Nahri has never believed in magic. Certainly, she has power; on the streets of 18th-century Cairo, she’s a con woman of unsurpassed talent. But she knows better than anyone that the trades she uses to get by - palm readings, zars, and a mysterious gift for healing - are all tricks, both the means to the delightful end of swindling Ottoman nobles and a reliable way to survive. But when Nahri accidentally summons Dara, an equally sly, darkly mysterious djinn warrior, to her side during one of her cons, she’s forced to reconsider her beliefs.

The searing follow-up to 2018’s most celebrated fantasy debut – THE POPPY WAR.

After all, making war is all she knows how to do…

Better than The Poppy War
I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Whilst i enjoyed the poppy war i found it to be a little disjointed and unfocused. The Dragon Republic rectified these issues for me as the story flowed better and was thematically tighter.
I particularly enjoyed the way Rin's character developed in this book and the greater depth given to some of the other characters.
The plot is great with some very interesting political machinations and character relationships.
This is the best book of any genre that i"ve read in a long time and so much better than what the vast majority other fantasy authors have to offer.
Very highly recommended.

interesting but obnoxious
TLDR
I struggled to finish this book due to Rin's personality and obnoxity. But I still love it.
Detailed
I loved many parts of this book, and wish I could rate it higher. The worldbuilding is really good, and the premise of the civil war and many of the plotpoints are amazing!
HOWEVER... This might just be my own opinion, but I found the main character close to unbearable. I understand and empathises why Rin makes the decisions she does, and I know the reason why she is descending. But I found her soooooo obnoxious, selfrighteous and naive, with no real understanding of the word "Empathy". I struggled empathising with her for long parts of the book, almost feeling satisfaction when things did not go her way.
In a way, I kind of like having a flawed protagonist, and I see what the author was going for. Sadly I think that the narrator played a big part in my reason for disliking Rin as much as I did.
BUT
I... I still kind of like Rin. She is interesting, a layered character with flaws and capable. and I understand her. I can see the logical and emotional threads that guides her every decision. the author did a really good job. She reminded me a lot of Azula from Avatar the last Airbender, and also a bit of season 1 Zuko. Comparing her to them, is for the few people who have not yet see AtlA, a very high standard in my own opinion.

Struggling
After an incredible first book, I’m struggling so badly with this one. The main character, Rin, is one of the worst leads ever.
She is utterly useless, whiney, arrogant, and selfish to no end. I find myself shouting with incredulity at her stupid decisions and whiney tones. I will say the rest of the book is great, I love all the other characters and the world building, and the narrator is fantastic. I’m not sure if I will finish this one though.

If you want a main character you can root for don’t bother with this
Rin is the least enjoyable part of this story she spends the majority of the second book either being powerless, stupid or both. She refuses to face the consequences of her actions she functions on a plain of more hypocrisy that makes her holy unsympathetic personally after she commited genocied and justified it with out regret I lost all interest in her characters survival I wouldn't be surprised if she died by the end of the series nor would I care at this point I'm reading for Kitay and venca. The story itself is pretty decent otherwise I enjoy the story moves fast but it's paced well and manages to keep the story engaging my main problems are with rin who's constant whining about a situation she was warned about but put herself in anyway. Her complete disregard for human life and continuous need to start wars because ‘ she's good at it ‘makes you understand the reason why the country ended up the way it did because people like her where in control. But in fairness the fact that I hate the character so viciously is a testament to R.F. Kuang’s ability to create and flesh out a character that has a believably bias and self-serving rationale.

Fantastical Asian Lore.
Damn this series just gets better with so many twists and turns, but I kept wanting to slap the main protagonist Rin for being so stupid, for being whiny and wallowing in her self pity and for letting herself be manipulated so easily all the bloody time. The second in the series of The Poppy War, The Dragon Republic has so much more of War, pain, betrayal, love, knowledge, power and growth. R.F Kuangs world and story is rich in tragedy, brutal realism, geo politics modelled on real world history, drug addiction issues and physical and sexual violence. I couldn't believe after reading the first book, it was based on actual real life atrocities. The worldbuilding and setting is absolutely fantastic. In the story so far Rin has unleashed the beast within her and can’t put it back, for the Phoenix god is an uncontrollable force of nature that can never be subdued by force of will alone and because of this, Rin becomes an opium addict, haunted by the terrible atrocities committed in her god’s name. Rin now commander of the Sike, a group of shamans with their own god's and problems are looking to bring down the Empire and get revenge against the empress. As I've said before this series is definitely not for the faint of heart. The narration by Emily Woo Zeller is awesome. Check it out if love asian lore, highly recommended...😁🔥💥

2nd worst fantasy series I've read
There is nothing redeemable about this series.
I was quite excited to read this series, with a number of sites showing a reasonably high average score.
After the first few chapters of book 1 that held some promise, I set in for a grim but hopeful read, but ultimately, in almost all ways the author let me down.
In short :
At no point, was a character portrayed in a way that made me, as the reader, form any kind of attachment to them. They were bland, petty, boring and one dimensional.
The lead character failed in every venture, learning nothing, blaming others and having a good whinge the whole time.
The dialog and prose were weak, artless and at times felt penned by an F-bomb loving teen.
The story never moved away from a never ending string of poor choices, performed by an unlovable, uninteresting lead character.
Avoid. If you're looking for Hobb or Sanderson or Jemisin you won't find them echoed in this hollow cavern of whinge.
Narrator was reasonably good though!

Worthy Sequel
A brilliant sequel; though it aids the listener in cooling down after the climactic events of the previous book, it has its own interesting story. New and fascinating parts of the world are introduced, as well as history, and emerging character conflicts. Though the pacing is slower, TDR does not suffer at all from 'middle book syndrome', but instead shows the listener the psychological and physical effects of war on a character level, and the geopolitical changes that come from unexpected victories. A new setting (mostly) brings old characters together in scenarios that are at the same time nostalgic, and tragic. This is a given, but the god-to-human relationships are (still) both terrifying, and impressive.

A slightly disappointing sequel!
I did enjoy this book but I did have a lot of issues with the main character. She was ... frustrating, I think is the best word. Spends about 450 pages out of this 600 page book complaining, which is 100 pages too long in my opinion. The plot was much slower than in The Poppy War, which wasn't necessarily bad, but coupled with Rin as the main character made this book drag on forever. That being said, the ending was marvellous. I think I'll continue with the rest of the series.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

Story
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.
