About this listen

Martial cultivators, flying swords, and magic talismans.

Life for Cha Ming is a daily grind. A rat race where people don’t make any real decisions. When he asks the universe for something more, fate itself answers his prayer. A talisman brush older than time itself sends him to another world, where magic, fortune, and danger await. Now, the world is at his fingertips. He has a new life, a new body, and can wield the five elements. It’s too bad his new home is a place where might makes right, and immortal cultivators and demons fight at the drop of a hat. But where the divine brush goes, danger follows. As its wielder, Cha Ming can’t stay out of trouble. There are many who seek the Clear Sky Brush, and they’ll stop at nothing to find it....

Good

The book and story is okay to good but some of the language use was irritating, ”as long as it takes a incense stick to burn” was repated over and over again, sometimes several times in adjacent sentences.

The narrator was not well suited to the book in my opinion.

Overall, as long it is included in membership it is worth a try.

Okay as a free book

this book seems to have gathered a unusually large amount of hate and after listening to it I can't understand where its coming from.

for example the character development is the worst part of the book describing it as lack luster being generous but it certainly doesn't ruin the book.

next there is perspective drift. the author can't seem to keep the focus on the mc including far to many perspectives and side chare characters for the reader to care about. however this is mainly a issue in book 2 so I don't think that's the reason.

I can only come to the conclusion that the people who poorly reviewed the book are not familiar with the cultivation style book of which this is a somewhat average example.

tldr: if you like cultivation stories you'll proberbly like this if you don't know what that is research what it is and the writing style before you spend your credits.

Not sure what has caused the hate

Nothing particularly wrong, just very generic. You can tell that it's done by a new/ amateur writer. Alot of repetition in sentences etc.

It's just... Not very coherent. It was off to a decent start, with characters' choices making sense and contributing to the story. Then the story doesn't really follow a path, people do stuff at random and the MC gets served everything on a silver platter. Then he goes off for some adventure, due to someone telling him "this will be good for you", with random events happening. I'm mostly left confused by this book, and will sadly not continue the series.

Disappointed

Author seems to love to gather as many sterotypical wuxia item/power/events as possible, but really lack the experience on how to write them well. The story lacks plots, depth, well written battle details ect. The MC just get random stuff/powerup from random guys to unlock x power or item and so it continues on

To generic
