Description
Dynasties rise and dynasties fall, like the tide washing the sand. On one side, he suffers from intrigue and hides his great ambition; on the other, the mysterious girl hides her anger behind her gentle smile. Who toppled the country, establishing their dynasty? Who built the Yellow Springs and set it over Imperial Power, inciting strife and conquering the earth? Who exchanged gazes at the Nine Palaces to the sound of halberd and blood, watching the falling flowers of Acacia? Who drank the poisoned wine and smiled, trading it for a cinnabar dot to the chest? Tribulation and strife has destroyed past prosperity; he would not retreat, and she has not finished singing. …. Is she disturbing the earth world, or is the world disturbing her? This is a seemingly simple story about an era of recovering the old country and the fight for the throne, and the men and women on both sides. To conquer or resist;To push away or fight for chance.To provoke or to still;To love, or to refuse love.

The Rise of Phoenixes Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on The Rise of Phoenixes
"The Rise of Phoenixes" is quite the sprawling historical drama, and after diving in, I can see why it has such a dedicated following, even if the translation is still a work in progress. It's clear this story has a lot to offer, but also some aspects that might not appeal to everyone.
First Impressions
The initial chapters certainly throw you into the deep end. The opening scene is memorable, and the introduction of Feng Zhiwei immediately establishes her as a force to be reckoned with. The political intrigue is palpable from the start, and you get the sense that you're entering a complex world where power is everything.
What Works Well
The character development is a major strength. Feng Zhiwei, in particular, is a fascinating protagonist. She's intelligent, resourceful, and undergoes significant growth throughout the story. I found myself really invested in her journey, especially as she navigates the treacherous world of court politics and grapples with love and revenge. The male lead, Ning Yi, is also compelling, especially as his dynamic with Zhiwei subverts typical gender roles. The author's exploration of themes like power struggles and the cyclical nature of revenge is also quite thought-provoking.
Areas of Concern
One potential issue is the writing style. While it seems to improve as the story progresses, the initial chapters might feel a bit heavy on descriptive phrases, which could be off-putting for some readers. Also, the misogynistic elements and portrayal of female characters could be a concern for some readers. While Zhiwei is a strong female lead, some of the supporting female characters fall into stereotypical roles.

Final Verdict
Despite some drawbacks, "The Rise of Phoenixes" is a captivating historical drama with compelling characters and intricate plotlines. If you're a fan of the genre and willing to overlook some of the initial writing quirks, I think you'll find a lot to enjoy in this story. I’m giving it a tentative 4 out of 5 stars, with the caveat that the ongoing translation might affect the overall reading experience. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how the rest of the story unfolds.
