R. F. Kuang (duplicate): The Poppy War (Hardcover, 2018, Harper Voyager)

One of Time Magazine’s 100 Best Fantasy Books of All Time

“I have no …

“It was the first time Rin had gotten a good look at the Mugenese outside the chaos of a melee, and she was disappointed by how very similar they looked to the Nikara. The slant of their eyes and the shape of their mouths were nowhere near as pronounced as the textbooks reported. Their hair was the same pitch-black as Nezha’s, their skin as pale as any northerner’s.

In fact, they looked more like Sinegardians than Rin and Altan did.

Aside from their language, which was more clipped and rapid than Sinegardian Nikara, they were virtually indistinguishable from the Nikara themselves.

It disturbed her that the Federation soldiers so closely resembled her own people. She would have preferred a faceless, monstrous enemy, or one that was entirely foreign, like the pale-haired Hesperians across the sea.”

@BEZORP hey! Just to explain this chaotic 'review', this is the result of my migration from Goodreads and I haven't yet checked wht the original one is like. [update: I checked and it was pretty close to the original review😅]

That being said: yes! I loved the whole trilogy very much. Have you read it?
