Good cultivation novel.

It is slow, no super power ups or skipping ranks. It's a slow grind that 99.9% of cultivation novel's skip. Our Mc is a minor character in the grand scheme of things and that's what makes it so good, he doesn't have all the answers does solve all the problems or anything like that. I liked it personally.

Travis Baldree did a amazing job as always he's how I've found 3 books so far after his narration of cradle.

Perfect scores all around.

I liked it and I recommend it

I'm enjoying the story so far and I like that there seems to be a budding romance starting. when I am enjoying a story the romance doesn't have to be the focus of the story and it certainly doesn't have to be garish and it's telling but I do want it as a part of the stories. romance and love is a part of life and I think that any story that doesn't at least touch upon it is missing a critical element. The last book had some hints and this one's got a few more than that. It is in my opinion by no means the focus of the book but I'm glad to see that it's there. As for the rest of the book I very much enjoyed it and I believe that the narrator did a fantastic job in his performance of the characters in the story. I highly recommend that if you're still reading this review and have not bought into the series yet that you do show. As of the time of this review I believe that there are six total that are available on audio and a seventh book is panting being published on Amazon as an ebook which I imagine that the audio will follow shortly thereafter.

I disagree with the negative reviews

I thought this book was a great sequel, a bit slower paced but a solid ending

easy to lose focus but great story

the naming convention of the story and overall naming of everything will cause the listener to unwillingly and unknowingly stop focusing on the story. then suddenly find themselves in an action packed scene. needing to skip back an unknown amount of time to figure out what happened.

difficult to create a bond or idea with any of the characters due to the namings schema being used.

I cant wait for the next book!

I likes how rather than the standard extreme jumps in power normally seen in cultivation novels we got to watch more from the side of a talented but not genius protagonist.

I cant wait for the next book!

Great listen

So I’m a HUGE fan of Will Wight… especially the Cradle series… this is not that, but if you love Cradle, you will like this. The characters are interesting and the world is fun.

Enjoyable

I appreciate the character development and world building. The pacing is slower but it allowed the story to fill out the other characters more.
