The part about Zixu's revenge in the book is really heart-wrenching, and the description of Gou Jian's daring while lying on the firewood is so shocking! It feels like I have traveled back to the Wuyue period and witnessed that period of history. The author writes so well, I can't wait to read the rest of the story.
