He Who Drowned the World (The Radiant Emperor, #2)

3.5 ⭐️
“But Zhu would be the emperor; not despite who she was, but because of it.”
I got on a lot better with this sequel than I did with book 1. Mainly because I was better prepared for all the politics and battle talk.
There were still a lot of names (often the same character with two names) but ultimately I loved watching Zhu fight for what she truly wants and taking down anyone in her way.
She gives zero fucks and it was so satisfying at times to see the take downs she delivers. The theme of gender is still super strong In here which I find so interesting.
I remained interested throughout and loved the end. I will be looking out for future books by this author.

"I did start getting lost at the end of book one. With all the names, battles and politics etc. but I’m giving book two a go."
