I welcome everyone to discuss and review this book. I'll read both the praise and criticism carefully. Thanks, everyone.
The characters in this book are all vividly portrayed, with distinct personalities. For example, there's the wise and gentle Xiao Lei Zi, the Buddhist-like Yi Jing, the old fox who reforms from evil, and other characters like Jiu Ying, the green and red foxes, and the young Taoist priest. They seem not just fictional characters, but living, breathing beings.
The story is a bit slow-paced, with a lot of setup in the early stages, so it feels a bit lukewarm. But it really gets better and better after 200,000 words, and the scope opens up completely.
I think this is one of the better books I've read. I found other books with ratings in the 9s to be quite boring, and even though this one only has a 7, I still found it quite interesting. Keep it up! [Learned something]
I really enjoyed the content of this book; it was very engaging and exciting. Keep up the good work, author, and don't let it have a bad ending!
Here's the first five-star rating for you! I didn't finish watching it, but it was around 250 words, which was pretty good. One of the few works I've watched recently that seriously delves into the setting and plot. If you don't like the early stages, you can skip this part. I'll leave a follow-up review if I'm lucky enough to finish watching it.
When I first got to the part about the battle with the Jade Rabbit, I inexplicably lost interest in reading further. But after saving it for a few months, I reread it and got hooked again. Although the story features various terrifying demons and monsters, the protagonist's presence makes it less frightening.
This book is very good; an 8.4 rating is a bit of an understatement. However, it lacks in the psychological and emotional aspects of the characters. If these aspects were improved, it wouldn't be difficult to get a rating of 9 or higher.
It's really good, but aside from his cool outburst, his abilities seem too weak. When will he awaken his powers?
This novel is great to listen to; it's especially captivating to listen to at night. 👍
