The Poppy War is a rare fantasy novel about the trauma of war and an unquenchable thirst for revenge-a dark epic inspired by the tumultuous history of twentieth-century China, the Opium Wars, and the Second Sino-Japanese War.
When Rin, a sixteen-year-old war orphan from the south of the Nikara Empire, comes top in the entrance exams for the elite Sinegard Military Academy, everyone is astonished. The examiners suspect her of cheating. Her guardians see their plans to marry her off to a much older man-who would help them with their opium smuggling-go up in smoke. Rin herself is fighting tooth and nail to escape poverty.
At the Academy, Rin becomes a target of her fellow students because of her background and gender. With the help of her unconventional teacher, Jiang, she soon discovers a gift for the nearly mythical art of shamanism: a supernatural, deadly power that connects her to the Phoenix, the vengeful god of fire.
After two Poppy Wars against the Federation of Mugen, the Empire has enjoyed years of peace. But across the sea, its ancient enemies are lying in wait, and a single spark could ignite a third war. Rin's superhuman powers may save her country. But they may also cost her her humanity...
