Ella que llegó a ser el sol

Ella que llegó a ser el sol

Parker-Chan, Shelley

In a famine-stricken village on a dusty yellow plain, two boys are given two fates. The child, greatness. The girl, the nothing... In 1345, China is ruled by the ruthless Mongols. For the starving peasants of the central plains, greatness is something found only in stories. When the eighth descendant of the Zhu family, Zhu Chongba, receives the destiny of greatness from him, everyone is puzzled as to how it will come true. The nothing the smart and competent second daughter of the family receives for his future, on the other hand, is no more than expected. However, when an attack by bandits leaves the two boys orphaned, it is Zhu Chongba who succumbs to despair and dies. As she tries to escape the death that has been predicted for her, the girl uses the identity of her brother to enter a monastery as a young novice. There, driven by her burning desire to survive, Zhu discovers that she is capable of doing whatever it takes to stay away from her fate. And she claims the fate of her brother for herself.
