It avoids clichéd, mindless exorcisms; the magical techniques are meticulously researched, and each case incorporates traditional folk customs. The master is reliable and steady, while the two disciples have contrasting personalities, creating a thrilling experience interspersed with lighthearted banter that prevents the entire book from feeling oppressive or suffocating.

    Tired of stories about celestial masters descending from the mountain and systems catching ghosts? This book, *Tales of the Strange Journey*, is a breath of fresh air in the folklore suspense genre!
