Travis Baldree is great.. this series, not so much. There are parts of this book (and the rest of the series) that are actually quite entertaining. However, the author has a serious fetish for torture. The theme comes up repeatedly; gouging out eyeballs, dismembering people, strangulation, and evisceration. It’s all a bit much, especially when the MC is written to be some superior cultivator with past life experiences and a penchant for taking the moral high ground… Also, by the 3rd book, the author is dropping in Starwars quotes, Star Trek references, and even Sharknado name dropping… very cringeworthy.
