A book that will go down as one of the best grimdark/military fantasy debuts of all time BOOKNEST
A masterpiece by grimdarks newest and perhaps darkest daughter FANTASY BOOK REVIEW
A wholly unique experience THE WASHINGTON POST
R.F. Kuangs fresh approach to magic and hard-hitting story is a punch to the gut fantasy has needed for a long time. I cant wait for THE DRAGON REPUBLIC Peter V. Brett, bestselling author of The Demon Cycle
Enthralling from start to finish I thought myself prepared. I was now. R.F. Kuangs debut is a masterful must-read, and Ive no doubt the best is yet to come Nicholas Eames, author of KINGS OF THE WYLD
A blistering, powerful epic of war and revenge that will captivate you to the bitter end Kameron Hurley, author of THE LIGHT BRIDAGE
Fresh, assured, character-driven fantasy thats choc full of magic, war, and betrayal. I loved it from start to finish Peter Newman, author of THE VAGRANT
A powerful, emotional journey, compellingly written Adrian Tchaikovsky, award-winning author of THE CHILDREN OF TIME
An original and engrossing tale of the coming of age of a talented young soldier amid the horrors of invasion and genocide Anna Stephens, author of GODBLIND
I so enjoyed The Poppy War by R. F. Kuang It is all about survival, and how a persons will and determination can change the course of their life. I loved the central character, felt her pain and her far-too-brief moments of joy, and just loved how Kuang breathes fresh life into the warrior training school Highly recommended John Gwynne, author of MALICE
