Description
The Citadel of Weeping Pearls was once a marvel of technology and ancient wisdom. Its inhabitants possessed the power to teleport themselves anywhere, while its weapons were small but deadly. Thirty years ago, the Citadel vanished after being threatened by an invading fleet from the Dai Viet Empire, leaving behind only mystery and grief. Now, as the Dai Viet Empire faces a new threat that turns their own ships against them, the Empress seeks the Citadel's legendary arsenal. Meanwhile, on a remote space station, an engineer works on a machine that could send her back in time to the height of the Citadel's power. However, this attempt to revive the past may have far-reaching and devastating consequences. This new book is set in the critically acclaimed Xuya universe, where the boundaries between technology and ancient knowledge are blurred.
