Iron Widow, written by Xiran Jay Zhao, retells the story of the only female emperor in Chinese history as a Young Adult sci-fi series. (content warnings for violence and gore.) It is an incredibly fantastic book with more than 20 awards in 2022 and a beautifully empowering LGBTQIA+ poly love story.
