Review title: Ignore the Cover, It's Not Representative of the Novel
Product review: Ignore the cover and the complaints about it. Yes, the COVER is grossly inaccurate, but the NOVEL is a decent work of historical fiction. It maintains the basic facts and presents interesting/reasonably probable "what ifs" to fill in the gaps (which are many). Be warned: this is by far the most sympathetic and favorable presentation of the Empress Wu. Mccune's desire for a strong, intelligent, female protagonist somtimes blinds her to Wu's very real ruthlessness and love of power. Take it from someone's who has read the book (more than once) and not just seen the cover.
