Female General & Eldest Princess

[qikiqtarjuaq]

FANDOM NAME: Female General & Eldest Princess

WHAT'S IT ABOUT: A novel set in ancient China about a young girl named Lin Wanyue who takes over her dead brother's identity to avenge her slaughtered family & village, eventually growing up to become a general. At the front lines, she meets a beautiful but ruthless and scheming princess named Li Xian, who she falls in love with.

WHAT MAKES IT GREAT:

• Lin Wanyue is a super fun main character who wears her heart and emotions on her sleeve. She's a very competent general and war strategist, but is terrible at reading other people or dealing with hidden political schemes. Her character arc going from blood-thirsty vengeance to a more nuanced look at the price of war is great.


• Li Xian is a lonely Machiavellian figure who's willing to do anything to protect her brother (the crown prince) and ensure the success of her schemes.


• Slow-burn canon f/f with a lot of thirsty pining from Lin Wanyue, while Li Xian gradually begins to see Lin Wanyue as more than just a pawn before falling for her completely after she discovers Lin Wanyue's cross-dressing.
