The Night Ends with Fire

De: K. X. Song

Narrado por: Natalie Naudus

Infused with magic and romance, this sweeping fantasy adventure inspired by the legend of Mulan follows a young woman determined to choose her own destiny—even if that means going against everyone she loves.

The Three Kingdoms are at war, but Meilin’s father refuses to answer the imperial draft. Trapped by his opium addiction, he plans to sell Meilin for her dowry. But when Meilin discovers her husband-to-be is another violent, ill-tempered man, she realizes that nothing will change for her unless she takes matters into her own hands.

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

In the army, Meilin's relentless hard work brings her recognition, friendship—and a growing closeness with Sky, a prince turned training partner. But has she simply exchanged one prison for another? As her kingdom barrels toward destruction, Meilin begins to have visions of a sea dragon spirit that offers her true power and freedom, but with a deadly price.

With the future of the Three Kingdoms hanging in the balance, Meilin will need to decide whom to trust—Sky, who inspires her loyalty and love; the sea dragon spirit, who has his own murky agenda; or an infuriating enemy prince who makes her question everything she once knew—about her kingdom and about her own heart.

A true love story of female power and bravery. A growing independence of the strength in a woman realizing her power .

Story is a little confusing , not my favorite book. Its all over the place with the story telling changing which person pov

Wow

It’s been awhile since I’ve been sucked into a story, beautifully written. I can’t wait for book two of the series!!

Interesting

this book was good FANTASY book. I liked the characters, the plot, story line, and the really good cliff hanger. I read the poppy war trilogy by R.F. Kuang and this book is something like that those. only thing I didn't like was hiw the character was written to sound incompetent. it gave the guys in the book the uperhand Everytime. it got annoying and bored. I thought she couldnt be smart enough to understand that?? she's good enough to learn and understand Kong fu and qigong, yet not smart enough to understand. besides that, it was a good book. I would recommend and I can't wait till part 2 comes out.

A different take on an old Chinese fable

The story was often quite dark and the twists and turns were many.
The entire society that was shown was very stifling and the underlying violence and barbarism never far from the reader.
The narration was very good.
