A review by ebbiebooks
Guardian: Zhen Hun (Novel) Vol. 1 by priest

adventurous funny mysterious tense

4.0

I was wary at first since I'm not having a great time with Stars of Chaos, from the same author. But this one is more my cup of tea. 

The urban setting is still heavy with fantasy, as there's a paranormal element to it that ties into the 3 realms and cultivation and such.

The character have a more lighthearted vibe to them, as even when there's tension or obstacles, their banter and jokes lift up the mood. I also feel like I have a better grasp of each character, that I know who they are more than in Stars of Chaos.

I'm puzzled as to how Guo Changcheng is going to come in play later. It was a bold move imo to start the book with the spotlight on him when he's not a main character.

I might check out the live action when I'm done, I'm intrigued to say the least.
