<p>"That's fitting. Now I can really call myself a ghost and demon. Turns out I've been one all along."</p> <p>Han Abrial Chae-young hasn't stepped foot outside of her parents' house for four years. Not that she hasn't tried — it's just, the exits are all surrounded by hundred-foot-tall walls, and she doesn't know enough magic to fly herself out.</p> <p>And it's driving her mad!</p> <p>She knows there's a world out there, with towns and cities, mountains and valleys, deserts and rivers and marketplaces and people — her close friend and (technically) servant, Finley, has told her all about it. But it's all out of her reach.</p> <p>That is, until one day, when a series of chaotic and perplexing events leads to Finley sending Abrial far away on a gust of wind for her own safety. (WTF??! Finley is a powerful magician, and never told anyone? Just another chaotic, perplexing thing that needs to be explained, I guess).</p> <p>In the outside world, Abrial discovers that she has locked-away powers that make her both more dangerous and more powerful than anyone in the Empire of Gongkua.</p> <p>Anyone, that is, except for the heartless immortal Emperor, who's been set on killing her from the beginning.</p> <p>How a Reckless Girl Defeated the Heartless Emperor is a fantasy/drama novel with themes of magical/spiritual cultivation, lots of action/adventure, mystery, suspense, and LGBTQ+ romance. There is also a lot of FOOD (Abrial loves a good bowl of chili oil noodles, even more than she loves to blade fight). Come along for the ride if you like any or all of the above!</p>
