When we first meet our protagonist, You Miao is a smug, lazy scholar hanging around studying for the Imperial examination, but when he saves the life of an enslaved warrior Li Zhifeng his life changes forever.

I’d been writing in the mystery genre for quite some time and this book made me want to write fantasy novels again.
