This is the sequel to She Who Became the Sun and it is a BEAUTIFUL duology. A retelling of the fall of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, the protagonist is born a girl but assumes her brother's identity and fate of greatness when he dies and lives the rest of her life in this new role. The sequel especially is all about gender and power
