Main character is unlikeable to a point where they are not relatable and come across as annoying. Tried to pick up the second and immediately put it down as it's more of the same.

It makes me very sad to know that it didn't live up to the greatness that everyone promised. After reading Yellowface and this book I'm coming to the conclusion that maybe this author isn't for me.
The truth is that I didn't understand much of what happened. I don't know if it's because it has a lot of modern Chinese history or because of the difficulty of fantasy, but my face while reading was like this: 😀❓️
It has unnecessarily graphic and violent scenes, and monsters that don't make any kind of sense with the plot.
I didn't connect with the characters, or the story, or the ending.
I already have the other two books so I don't know what the hell I'm going to do, if anyone wants them, I'm selling them lol.
Many say that the story gets better in the following volumes, I doubt it.

There are a lot of heavy moments in this book. I loved learning about the authors process using real history to inspire the battles, the choice to have more of an ancient wartime instead of modern technology etc- I loved it. Ngl I had it in my head that there was a slow burn in here and that never happened lol 🤣
It’s good. Read it.
