'A masterpiece by grimdark's newest and perhaps darkest daughter' - Fantasy Book Review

'A wholly unique experience' - The Washington Post

'Enthralling from start to finish... I thought myself prepared. I was now. R.F. Kuang's debut is a masterful must-read, and I've no doubt the best is yet to come' - Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld

'A blistering, powerful epic of war and revenge that will captivate you to the bitter end' - Kameron Hurley, author of The Light Brigade

'Fresh, assured, character-driven fantasy that's choc full of magic, war, and betrayal. I loved it from start to finish' - Peter Newman, author of The Vagrant

'A powerful, emotional journey, compellingly written' - Adrian Tchaikovsky, award-winning author of The Children of Time

'An original and engrossing tale of the coming of age of a talented young soldier amid the horrors of invasion and genocide' - Anna Stephens, author of Godblind

'I so enjoyed The Poppy War by R. F. Kuang... It is all about survival, and how a person's will and determination can change the course of their life. I loved the central character, felt her pain and her far-too-brief moments of joy, and just loved how Kuang breathes fresh life into the warrior training school... Highly recommended' - John Gwynne, author of Malice
