puddlejumper 's review for:

She Who Became the Sun by Shelley Parker-Chan
5.0
challenging dark emotional reflective fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Absolutely loved this! It is very much a war epic with complicated characters and plots within plots.

Though there is a fantasy element I would place this as historical fiction over fantasy. It covers Zhu Yuanzhang's rise to power in 14th century China and the eventual establishment of the Ming Dynasty.
