Über diesen Titel
Brought to you by Penguin.
IRON WIDOW meets SIX CRIMSON CRANES in this immersive YA fantasy inspired by Chinese legend, perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Chloe Gong.
Eighteen-year-old Aihui Ying dreams of becoming a brilliant engineer just like her beloved father - but her life is torn apart when she arrives a moment too late to stop his murder, and worse, lets the killer slip out of reach. Left with only a journal containing his greatest engineering secrets and a jade pendant snatched from the assassin, Ying vows to take revenge into her own hands.
Disguised as her brother, Ying heads to the capital city, and discovers that the answer to finding who killed her father lies behind the walls of the prestigious Engineers Guild - the home of a past her father never wanted to talk about. With the help of an unlikely ally - Aogiya Ye-yang, a taciturn (but very handsome) young prince - Ying must navigate a world fraught with rules, challenges and politics.
But to survive, she must fight to stay one step ahead of everyone. And when faced with the choice between doing what's right and what's necessary, Ying will have to decide if her revenge is truly worthwhile, if it means going against everything her father stood for...

All my favourite tropes in one book
This is definitely one of those books that has you crave artwork, a series, perhaps a movie adaption, but most importantly a SECOND VOLUME right away. As a fan of wuxia, xianxia, and steampunk, this was the ideal mix for me. I had heard it compared to Iron Widow, which I don't necessarily agree with. The themes and plots have overlap, but not all that much. I rather felt a similarity with Spin The Dawn or Daughter of the Moon Goddess, both of which I enjoyed as well. Among the three, this might be my favourite though, if simply for the world building that feels fresh and not yet as explored in fiction quite as much.
