Description
She Who Became the Sun by Shelley Parker-Chan is a historical fantasy set in 14th-century China, where a famine-stricken village on a dusty plain holds the fate of two children. A seer's prophecy shows a family's eighth-born son greatness, but the second daughter is destined for nothing. In a desperate bid to survive, the girl takes on her dead brother's identity and begins her journey to claim her brother's greatness and rise to power. As rebellion sweeps the land, Zhu must navigate the complexities of her new identity and confront the harsh realities of her destiny. This immersive tale of love, loss, and betrayal is a reimagining of the rise to power of a real-life peasant rebel who unified China under native rule. With its epic and tragic narrative, She Who Became the Sun is a glorious tale from a powerful new voice.
