An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!
A USA Today bestseller!

Pacific Rim meets The Handmaid's Tale in this blend of Chinese history and mecha science fiction for YA readers.

The boys of Huaxia dream of pairing up with girls to pilot Chrysalises, giant transforming robots that can battle the mecha aliens that lurk beyond the Great Wall. It doesn't matter that the girls often die from the mental strain.

When 18-year-old Zetian offers herself up as a concubine-pilot, it's to assassinate the ace male pilot responsible for her sister's death. But she gets her vengeance in a way nobody expected—she kills him through the psychic link between pilots and emerges from the cockpit unscathed. She is labeled an Iron Widow, a much-feared and much-silenced kind of female pilot who can sacrifice boys to power up Chrysalises instead.​

To tame her unnerving yet invaluable mental strength, she is paired up with Li Shimin, the strongest and most controversial male pilot in Huaxia​. But now that Zetian has had a taste of power, she will not cower so easily. She will miss no opportunity to leverage their combined might and infamy to survive attempt after attempt on her life, until she can figure out exactly why the pilot system works in its misogynist way—and stop more girls from being sacrificed.

The speaker did a really great job! I love the way i can discern between the characters just by the way she is speaking. And the author is amazing too! If you search for a damn good story with breathtaking fights, an absurd government conspiracy, where the love triangle is solved in the most logical way (poly) then you've come to the right place!

Damn Good Book

Amazing storytelling with no boring moments, I was caught from the very first moment. I don’t know what to say else. People; go and read this book. You won’t regret it.

Can’t wait for a sequel

es war eine schöne Geschichte mit leichten schwächen. es ist angenehm modern aber reproduziert leider manchmal den Sexismus gegen den es sich wendet.
bi und polyamore Darstellung fand ich gut

hat Spaß gemacht

So healing, so different and fierce, 10/10 best book ever. It is so relatable even though it's sci-fi and with a background of Chinese culture and history which isn't familiar to me but I've enjoyed immensely.

10/10

Came for the polyamorous love triangle. Stayed for the systematic destruction of the patriarchy.

I don't really have anything more to say, book's good
