4.5⭐️The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang is a dark, intense fantasy inspired by Chinese history. The story blends mythology, politics, and real-world war horrors. Rin’s journey is intense and often disturbing, showing the true cost of power and revenge. Kuang’s writing is sharp, emotional, and unafraid to show the darkest sides of war.
It’s not an easy read, but it’s gripping and thought-provoking. I’d recommend it to anyone who enjoys morally complex fantasy with real-world depth.
