2025’s upcoming A Palace Near The Wind is the first installment in Ai Jiang’s Natural Engines secondary-world natural fantasy1 duology.
In exchange for a regular supply of new Wind Walker brides from Feng, the king graciously slows the inexorable growth of the Palace into Feng. In this way, Feng’s doom, while still clearly inevitable, is delayed.
Liu Lufeng has a bold solution, one that will require her to get within arm’s reach of the king.
