About this listen

Winter has passed, taking with it the hope of peace. The state of Wei deploy an increasing number of cultivators and soldiers, intent on taking over the state of Shen. Caught in between the armies is Wu Ying's village and all those that he cares about.

Advised to keep away from the approaching war, Wu Ying will have to decide what is more important - his journey to immortality or the ties to the mortal that he holds onto still. Or perhaps, there is a third way, one that balances both the needs of Heaven and destiny and the karmic ties of the family.

Exactly What I Needed

This was exactly what I was needing after the second book left me a bit wanting.

Tooo slow!

Love the book, the ideas and the characters but the main character is the weakest, and is not getting any stronger. He’s not the chosen one, he’s not special in anyway. Come on! The story moves at a snails pace. How long before everyone gives up on this author?

easy to relisten to

I'm reviewing this probably on my third go through. sometimes when my queues are all complete and I need something in the background this book is a great accompaniment.

A well told fetch quest

This book was meh as far as the series go, as a longtime reader of this genre I understand and agree with the growth, but the love story was poorly written, poorly thought through, and obviously going to go the way it did. I would recommend making the story a bit longer and giving more growth time for character interactions, as a significant portion of the stories are his seniors talking to him, rather than real meaningful conversations. Good, not great, worth the money, but not going to knock your socks off.

Authors note.

Good continuation of the story. Entirely too many authors notes. The story tends to drag a bit and the conflict seems unnecessary at times. Still looking forward to the next.

great book if a bit slow

so this book is a bit slow beyond that I dont have much in the way of issues with it.
given the author notes at the end I am very excited for the 4th book and the future of are main character. I hope he develops a bit faster now......just not to fast.

Fabulous!!

Tao did a fabulous job writing this! Having to grow, realize your past isn't your present, and being willing to move on mentally and emotionally is huge and he depicts it so well!

Travis is my favorite narrator, and he as always was amazing reading this!

The high stakes battles.

The reading is alright, but sometimes I don't quite like the readers exaggerated voice. That's just my opinion though. Still very good 👍.
