Praise for The Secret Lives of Immortals

Through this centuries-spanning love story, Huang weaves in a crucial question: who gets to wield power, and why? An insightful exploration of love, mortality, and the seductive nature of good intentions, The Secret Lives of Immortals asks whether living forever teaches us how to live, or just makes us blind to the reality of being human.

Sunyi Dean, author of The Book Eaters and The Girl with a Thousand Faces

An exquisite tale of sorcery and power, and a centuries-spanning love story.

He Ling, a woman from fourth century China, is tricked into immortality and must settle with the consequences of her long life, as well as the actions of the alluring man who betrayed her. Equal parts lush historical fantasy and a keen exploration of modernity, The Secret Lives of Immortals is a genre-defying work of speculative fiction that will take you on a journey of infinite lifetimes.
