Strike the Zither

By Joan He
Strike the Zither by Joan He digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A dazzling new fantasy from New York Times and Indie bestselling author Joan He, full of secrets and betrayal, Strike the Zither is an inventive and sweeping fantasy perfect for fans of Rebecca Ross and Chloe Gong, “rich in intrigue and epic in scale.”
Orphaned at a young age, Zephyr took control of her fate by becoming the realm’s most powerful strategist, serving under a leader whose cause jeopardizes their survival in a war where one must betray or be betrayed.

When Zephyr is forced to infiltrate an enemy camp, she encounters the enigmatic Crow, the only strategist who has ever rivaled Zephyr’s talent. But mastermind though Crow may be, he is no match for Zephyr. She will defy the heavens to win and no one—neither human nor god—can stop her.

Featuring gorgeous map art and black-and-white portraits, Strike the Zither is the first book in Joan He's riveting Kingdom of Three duology that explores human greed and ambition in a war-torn world. Don't miss the epic conclusion in Sound the Gong!

“4.75 ⭐️ after rereading, I'm surprised i remember most of what happened, the book rlly stuck with me for the past year”
Slightly Smiling Face“Wild plot twist but somehow no depth but a cool world and idea. So… it was a good time.”
Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“Oh my god, this book gave me EVERYTHING I didn't know I needed. What ADVENTURE. What PLOT TWISTS. I only started reading it because a good friend bought it for me as a gift, but this story has been so exciting and invigorating. It's fast-paced with such an intelligent and arrogant main character, but she's so well-written that you can't help but love her. And the twist was so unpredictable, and usually I'm so good at figuring things out, but from the middle of the book onwards I had no idea what was going to come next. I was so excited for the sequel, that I rushed and finished it before I even wrote this review, lol! Great book!”
