The second book in The Dandelion Dynasty, the epic fantasy trilogy by Ken Liu. Dara is united under the Emperor Ragin, once known as Kuni Garu, the bandit king. There has been peace for six years, but the Dandelion Throne rests on bloody foundations – Kuni's betrayal of his friend, Mata Zyndu, the Hegemon. The Hegemon's rule was brutal and unbending – but he died well, creating a legend that haunts the new emperor, no matter what good he strives to do. Where war once forged unbreakable bonds between Kuni's inner circle, peace now gnaws at their loyalties. Where ancient wisdoms once held sway, a brilliant scholar promises a philosophical revolution. And from the far north, over the horizon, comes a terrible new threat... The scent of blood is in the water Review: Worse than book 1 - Ken Liu's translation of Cixin Liu's Three Body Trilogy is fantastic, but his effort at a Chinese influenced Game of Thrones here falls flat, even more so than the first book in the series. Review: Extraordinary series - The final book book in an extraordinary series. These are exceptionally well written books.

Worse than book 1
Ken Liu's translation of Cixin Liu's Three Body Trilogy is fantastic, but his effort at a Chinese influenced Game of Thrones here falls flat, even more so than the first book in the series.

Would highly recommend this series
This series is very good It does a good job of developing characters and motivations throughout and doesn't shy away from killing some characters off They are proper long books not some 150 page short story masquerading as a book so they have a lot of depth to them - the characters are well realised and the world building is really great Its a multi-generational story that develops new mythology as it goes along It also shows the realities of a war where communication is not instant like today

Better than first one.
Mr. Liu's second novel is more incredible than first one. You just have to read it and from first chapter you will get absorb into History.
