This is not historical or paranormal, this is Wuxia. Anyone familiar with the genre will get it. I downloaded this so I could listen to wuxia while working and thoroughly enjoyed the book. A lot of books in this genre rely on tropes like reincarnation, magic items, or a secrete or hidden master, but this..
I only got maybe one or two chapters in when I realized I was getting more and more depressed. It starts off dark and just gets darker and darker from there. Man talk about setting up a completely hopeless situation. This is not for people who have sensitive hearts. I would not recommend this to..
Review from Dragon’s Teeth: An Alex Rogers Adventure →
Completely enjoyed the new adventures Alex Rogers undertook! The addition of another lead character took me by surprise, however, her role added a whole new twist to the storyline.

Review from Unsouled →
felt a little cash grabby because of how short it was. felt like maybe the publisher split a longer story into short books. Characters a little two dimensional. Overall an enjoyable read.
