Speaking bones / Ken Liu.

Liu, Ken, 1976- (author.).

Summary:
The concluding book of the Dandelion Dynasty begins in the middle of two wars on two lands among three peoples separated by an ocean yet held together by invisible strands of love and ideals. Harried by Lyucu pursuers, Princess Théra and Pékyu Takval try to reestablish an ancestral dream even as their hearts grow in doubt. The people of Dara continue the struggle against the genocidal Lyucu as both nations vacillate between starkly contrasting visions for their futures. Even the gods cannot see through the Wall of Storms, for only mortal hearts can decide mortal fates.
