He Who Drowned the World is the sequel to the Sunday Times
bestseller She Who Became the Sun. What would you give to win the
world? Zhu Yuanzhang, the Radiant King, is riding high after her
victory – one that tore southern China from its Mongol masters.
Now she burns with a new desire: to seize the throne and crown
herself emperor. However, Zhu isn’t the only one with imperial
aspirations. Courtesan Madam Zhang plots to steal the throne for
her husband. But scorned scholar Wang Baoxiang is even closer to
the throne. He’s maneuverered his way to the capital, where his
courtly games threaten to bring the empire to its knees. For
Baoxiang also desires revenge: to become the most degenerate Great
Khan in history. In the process, he’d make a mockery of the
warrior values his Mongol family loved more than him. To stay in
the game, Zhu must gamble everything on one bold move. A risky
alliance with an old enemy: Ouyang, the brilliant but unstable
eunuch general. All contenders will do whatever it takes to win.
But when desire has no end, and ambition no limits, could the price
be too high for even the most ruthless heart to bear? Praise for
