Caught between morale, politics and love, how can you be sure what to fight for?
In C.L. Clark’s The Unbroken, two women clash in a world full of rebellion and espionage and are caught between colonialism and revolution in a story rife with familial, political and romantic tension.
The Burning God, the exciting final volume in R.F. Kuang’s The Poppy War trilogy, combines the history of 20th-century China with a gripping world of gods and monsters, to devastating, enthralling effect.
