Descendant of the Crane features an intricate plot with both a huge murder mystery as well as so much political intrigue.

However, the second half was a constant stream of mind-shattering revelations and plot twists- my poor heart didn't know what to do with itself!

She reacts to situations exactly how I’d imagine I would if i were a 17 year old princess who lost the parent I was the closest to and inherited a kingdom built on hatred.Coronada como Reina (lo cual ya es raro porque esto es un setting completamente chino), Hesina decide acudir a una persona que usa magia prohibida en el reino para entender si la muerte de su padre fue natural.

The entire first 57% of this book before the first plot twist happens was slow and utterly boring, and it was a chore to get through. But, like, seriously, both are about royal siblings who must struggle to learn to manage their kingdoms in times of severe political upheaval.The main character is way too preoccupied with more important things to get in touch with her rom …more A tiny bit, but it's far from the focus of the plot. Joan He manages to weave Joan has a beautiful prose that worked very well with the story, it actually exceeded my expectations.
