K.X. Song is a fantasy author whose work draws on Chinese history and mythology. Her debut novel, An Echo in the City (2022), is a contemporary story, but she gained wider attention with The Night Ends with Fire (2024), the first book in The Dragon Spirit series.
The Dragon Spirit is a historical fantasy duology inspired by the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history. The Night Ends with Fire follows Meilin, a young woman who discovers she can channel the power of dragons in a land torn apart by war. The second book, The Dragon Wakes with Thunder (2025), continues Meilin’s story as the conflict between rival kingdoms intensifies. Song’s writing blends historical detail with fantasy elements, placing a personal story of identity and power against a backdrop of political upheaval.
