* I was given the ARC through Netgalley *
Book one was a larger fantasy twist to the story of Mulan, and book two throws in the attitude of Iron Widow! I was invested enough for several shocked-out-loud moments, but at times the plot got a bit confusing. I wasn't sure if we were trying to save the world, stop a war, find a pond, control a dragon... This book probably could have been a longer series to dive into each subplot in more detail.
I still enjoyed it (so many tabs were used!) and was surprised at how much I agreed and disagreed with the protagonist. None of this was predictable, this book kept me on my toes!
