Über diesen Titel

RITA Award winner, Mainstream Fiction with a Central Romance, 2017.

There is no easy path for a woman aspiring to power.

A concubine at the palace learns quickly that there are many ways to capture the emperor's attention. Many paint their faces white and style their hair attractively, hoping to lure in the One Above All with their beauty. Some present him with fantastic gifts, such as jade pendants and scrolls of calligraphy, while others rely on their knowledge of seduction to draw his interest. But young Mei knows nothing of these womanly arts, yet she will give the emperor a gift he can never forget.

Mei's intelligence and curiosity, the same traits that make her an outcast among the other concubines, impress the emperor. But just as she is in a position to seduce the most powerful man in China, divided loyalties split the palace in two, culminating in a perilous battle that Mei can only hope to survive.

In the breakthrough first volume in the Empress of Bright Moon duology, Weina Dai Randel paints a vibrant portrait of ancient China - where love, ambition, and loyalty can spell life or death - and the woman who came to rule it all.

I loved it very much. The story was amazing and the reader is amazing. I'm already hearing Part 2 and would love to hear a Part 3.

Fantastic Story & Great Reader

ust finished this audio, and it was a struggle from start to finish. The narrator, a female voice, attempted a range of styles—from a madman to a sweet woman—but it came across as unsettling and almost disturbing. The story itself was a letdown, with flat, uninteresting characters and a plot that was just horrible. It felt painfully artificial, trying far too hard to be dramatic but missing the mark entirely. I had to force myself to keep listening, hoping it would improve, but it never did. Safe to say, I won’t be listening to the second book.

Not good
