Really enjoyed this book. I started reading Chinese cultivation novels almost a year ago. This YA version would have been a much easier intro to the genre. I read the audio book and the narrator was perfect. I loved hearing the Mandarin words pronounced the correct way rather than trying to sound them out myself with a guide. There are still some things that would be difficult to understand if you aren't familiar with the culture and genre. But overall, I thought it was done incredibly well. I loved Xian, Zhen, and Qing! I was invested in their stories
