"I refuse to be nothing."
In a famine-stricken village, a seer shows two children their futures. For the boy, there's greatness. For the girl, nothingness. But Chine in 1345 leis under harsh Mongol rule - and the other villagers can't imagine how the boy, Zhu Chingba, might find success. And indeed, when bandits seize the village, Zhu Chongba dies.
Desperate to survive, the girl steals her brother's identity to enter a monastery. There, Zhu learns to be ruthless to avoid her fated death. But when the sanctuary is destroyed by war, Zhu is cast back into the world. To stay alive, she must claim her brother's great destiny as her own - and rise high as she can dream.
A thrilling reimagining of the Ming Dinasty's first emperor.
