Descending the Vermilion Gate

A brilliant interstellar pilot crashes through time itself, waking in the frail body of a six-year-old noble girl who just died from fever. Born premature, dismissed as slow and clumsy, this second daughter of a minor official's house has been written off by everyone. But with a lifetime of advanced knowledge trapped in a child's frame, she'll rewrite her fate from the ground up—mastering an ancient world one careful step at a time.
