Raised to obey. Destined to rebel. A young girl disguises herself as a boy to enlist in her father's place, and is thrown into war and love as she learns to wield tantalizing outlawed magic in this retelling of Mulan.
RAISED TO OBEY. DESTINED TO REBEL.
The Three Kingdoms are at war, but Meilin's father refuses to answer the imperial draft. Trapped by his opium addiction, he plans to sell Meilin for her dowry instead - but when she discovers that her husband-to-be is violent and ill-tempered, she decides to take matters into her own hands.
The very next day, she disguises herself as a boy and enlists in her father's place.
In the army, Meilin's hard work brings her recognition, friendship - and a growing closeness with Sky, a prince turned training partner.
But as her kingdom barrels towards destruction, Meilin must decide who to trust: Sky, who inspires her loyalty and love; a sea dragon spirit with the power to grant her impossible magic; or an infuriating enemy prince who makes her question everything she once knew - about her kingdom, her loyalty and her own heart.
Praise for The Night Ends With Fire: a sweeping and romantic debut fantasy

Legendary in scope with unforgettable characters, The Night Ends With Fire is an incredible journey that'll set your imagination ablaze. Drawing on classics like Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Mulan, the machinations are complex, the vying factions fascinating, and Meilin's struggle for identity utterly gripping as she clashes with those who want to exploit her lixia for their own purposes. K.X. Song is going to set the literary scene on fire with her awesome new novel - Peter Tieryas, author of the Mecha Samurai Empire series and Narrative Director at Nicalis

The Night Ends With Fire is a truly enthralling epic fantasy. I was blown away by how good it was! With an immersive and compelling story led by a seriously fabulous heroine and sparkling with both magic and romance, it's the perfect wuxia drama, and I loved it.

The Night Ends with Fire is what blessedly happens when the themes of Hua Mulan's legend are combined with wuxia principles and a powerful new voice in adult fantasy. K.X. Song's soaring, emotive prose takes the reader on an unforgettable adventure in a painstakingly realized world, laced with fascinating characters that effortlessly play off of one another and twists that leave us reeling. I devoured every page of this truly epic tale - Thea Guanzon, USA Today and New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars

Sweepingly epic and tenderly romantic, The Night Ends With Fire is a fiercely feminist adventure about a young woman fighting to shape her destiny in a world of lore, magic, and war. One not to miss for fans of Mulan - Amelie Wen Zhao, NYT bestselling author of Song of Silver, Flame Like Night
