About this listen

Forged in battle. Her legend begins.

A young woman who wields the power of the dragon must decide where her loyalties lie—and where her heart belongs—in this enthralling re-imagining of the legend of Mulan.

The war may be over, but Hai Meilin is still paying a heavy toll. Upon her return to Anlai, she is cast into prison. Her crime? Wielding a sword as a woman.

In the palace, Meilin is a pariah. But beyond the imperial walls, her legend has taken on a life of its own. To the east, a rebel leader needs Meilin to helm his revolution. In the south, a former enemy prince seeks her aid in restoring balance to the Three Kingdoms. And back home, Liu Sky, Meilin's commander and first love, wants Meilin by his side in his bid for the throne.

Pulled in all directions, Meilin vows that this time she will not be so quick to trust. Yet there is one she cannot help but listen to—for he dwells within her.

The sea dragon Qinglong has his own plans. During the war, Meilin wielded his power to cheat death and gain victory; now he has come to collect his dues. Meilin's mother warned her long ago: the spirits demand blood. And Qinglong is ravenous.
