Publisher Description
In order to prevent war with the nation of Xing, Yona and Hak ask the informant Ogi to deliver an important letter to Su-won. Later, Yona races to the Fire Tribe to appeal to an ally there—Kang Tae-jun! Will Yona succeed in helping her friends who are captured in Xing?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
On Princess Yona's 16th birthday, she's trying to plot a course through her marriage proposals until a coup forces her to flee her castle with a childhood friend, the edgy General Hak. Add in a likable villain she loves and you have a shojo love triangle ready to rumble... but not much rumbling happens. The story's fictitious setting is reminiscent of the fantastic ancient China in the classic reverse harem manga Fushigi Yuugi, but without the humor or the magic. In fact, aside from the eye candy of the costumes, the book is lacking all around: the plot and characters are simple and stale. By the end of this first volume, Yona hasn't developed personal agency or become the warrior the cover suggests. However, what story there is has good pacing and layout, and the art is high quality. There's promise for the future volumes, if Kusanagi (NG Life) can bring the characters to life.

Best manga series
I really love this book, series, and author. I think this is my favorite book so far { S P O I L E R S }
Because of the Min-su appearance, kiss (eeeeee!), ( I know this sounds mean ) dragons locked up/ separation (seeing how Yona copes without them), and all the drama of war! I love it! To e author: You don’t have to listen to others needs and wants of “more this” “more that” in your stories, just write what you want and feel like! That’s what makes it interesting! 🌷👍💋
