The Night Ends With Fire
by K X Song
American Library Association Amazing Audiobook 2025
The Night Ends with Fire is not a Young Adult book, but with an 18-year-old protagonist it will definitely appeal to older teen readers as well as to adults. It’s a gripping fantasy novel inspired both by the Chinese classic Three Kingdoms and the story of Mulan. But whereas Mulan dressed as a boy to join the army out of filial piety, Meilin does it to rebel against her father and avoid marriage to an abusive husband. What price will she pay for her defiance and ambition?
