By: Julie C. Dao   | Series: Rise of the Empress 
The Wrath and the Dawn meets Snow White and the Huntsman in this dark and mystical East Asian fantasy reimagining of The Evil Queen legend about one peasant girl's quest to become Empress.

"A richly developed fantasy world . . . Julie C. Dao is a talent to watch."—Marie Lu, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Young Elites

Eighteen-year-old Xifeng is beautiful. The stars say she is destined for greatness, that she is meant to be Empress of Feng Lu. But only if she embraces the darkness within her.

Growing up as a peasant in a forgotten village on the edge of the map, Xifeng longs to fulfill the destiny promised to her by her cruel aunt, the witch Guma, who has read the cards and seen glimmers of Xifeng's majestic future. But is the price of the throne too high? Because in order to achieve greatness, she must spurn the young man who loves her and  exploit the callous magic that runs through her veins--sorcery fueled by eating the hearts of the recently killed. For the god who has sent her on this journey will not be satisfied until his power is absolute. 

Set in an East Asian-inspired fantasy world filled with both breathtaking pain and beauty, Forest of a Thousand Lanterns possesses all the hallmarks of masterful fantasy: dazzling magic, heartbreaking romance, and a world that hangs in the balance. Fans of Heartless, Stealing Snow, and Red Queen will devour this stunning debut.

Good quality car care kit
Style: KIT
This product was specifically asked for by my adult son. Upon opening, it had leaked (it was a gift so I did not open) but he went ahead and used it. Good quality, car care product.

Not so good….
Style: KIT
On a brand new car used the citrus car wash product with the 2 bucket method and the interior and glass cleaner. The citrus product sank to the bottom of the 5 gallon bucket, despite all efforts couldn’t get it thoroughly mixed in the water. Used it anyway with the microfiber mitt - this mitt was excellent and I was satisfied with the wash (car was clean before washing except for bird droppings) except for eye irritation from a teeny splash. On to drying - the included microfiber drying towels were worse than worthless. They stuck to the surface of the car and shedded fibers all over the paint. I had to hose off the car to get rid of the purple lint it deposited wherever it touched the car. Larger chunks of lint came off the cloth as well. I used the interior and glass cleaner only on the interior of the windshield. Got in the car this AM, there was a haze on the entire windshield inner surface. Chemical Guys has excellent marketing and video tutorials but I’d recommend purchasing better quality components rather than what’s in this box. The ingredients in the wash, interior cleaner, and wheel cleaner are also not good for the environment, eyes, or skin. I wonder what the runoff from this one washing will do to our and neighbors’ vegetation.
