 TGCF is probably the best of the first volumes of MXTX's works that just came out in English. This volume covers the Banyue arc and ends around the same time as the donghua so if you've seen it, you might think there's not much new here but actually reading it is much different to having seen the animation. MXTX's novels are great for their worldbuilding and that is showcased very well in TGCF. Her style of writing is a bit less conventional for people who aren't already used to the web novel danmei genre - however it only takes a little bit of getting used to.

I really enjoyed this book! This will be the second mxtx book I've read. 

What I love about this edition is all of the artwork that was included. I also loved the character and name guide and the glossary at the end. (This is something every fantasy book needs).

Overall, I really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to continue the story in volume 2.
