About The Ascent to Godhood by Neon Yang
After the Protector’s death, Lady Han—whose movement once sought to bring her down—mourns in a tavern in rebel territory. Her memories reach back to the Protector’s youth, before her rise to power, and to the dancing girl who fell in love with her. The story looks at the end of a fifty-year rule through the perspective of a former enemy.
A 2019 fantasy novella and the fourth Tensorate installment, The Ascent to Godhood may appeal to readers interested in queer speculative fiction, political power, rebellion, and the personal histories behind public conflict.
