I was hooked from from the start! The cover with kanji (Japanese pronunciation of Chinese characters) has a couple of meanings; kara=empty or sora=sky. It’s perfect for the first book! It is fitting. Not to put in spoilers but to start with zero, no natural affinity then be able to grow for oneself makes a good Wuxia. I’m reminded of Gou Jing in Condor Heroes. I’m ready for book 2!
