Title: Unsouled Pdf
Sacred artists follow a thousand Paths to power, using their souls to control the forces of the natural world.
Lindon is Unsouled, forbidden to learn the sacred arts of his clan.
When faced with a looming fate he cannot ignore, he must rise beyond anything he's ever known...and forge his own Path.
Will Wight knows how to tell a story He came out of nowhere with the Traveler's Gate series, which surprised me with its humor and depth of world building. His next series doubled down (literally) with two versions of each book, one from each side of the main conflict... and now this crazy mashup of science fiction and kung-fu fantasy has made me a fan for life. Wight is what would result from an ungodly union of Branden Sanderson and Jim Butcher, and I'm loving every second of it.This is a classic hero's journey set in a universe of godly fighters and monstrous remnants, where the cultivation and control of life energy known as madra is the basis of civilization on the world of Cradle. Wei Shi Lindon, a member of the Silverfox Clan, has had the misfortune to be born an Unsouled: someone unfit to harness the power of madra. Lindon, however, is not satisfied with his place on the lowest rung of society, and is determined to do everything he can to prove his worth.(Back-of-the-book level spoilers follow)Oh, and did I mention that there's a high-technology, space-time time manipulating civilization of angel-like wardens watching over countless worlds (Cradle among them)? Well, there is, and Lindon's life is changed forever the day one of those wardens is drawn to Cradle in the course of her duties.Pretty soon Lindon gets the shock of his life, and suddenly his drive for self-improvement has a whole new level of urgency...Doesn't subvert the genre like I was promised I gave this a try because so many people told me that this book took the tropes from the xianxia genre and improved them, but I really struggled on my way to 100%. It's true that the protagonist isn't the type who just powers through everything and it was nice to see him succeed via trickery, but that's about all I can say nice about it.The main thing I dislike about such webnovels is the emotionally stunted protagonists who can barely interact with anyone like a human being. In a book that includes multiple traumatic events, the protagonist struggles to even get close to emotion or empathy. Basically every character is either a very minor role or thrown away until a character introduced at about the 80% mark. She'll obviously be more important, but since the author has shown so little ability to write lifelike characters, I'm not willing to give this series another 300 pages.Though not as bad as some episodic webnovels (it does have some overarching plot), it still suffers from the problem of just stumbling from one event to another. Each scenario or challenge matters for exactly one miniature arc, then it gets tossed aside without any weight. It's deeply unsatisfying experience from a plot perspective.
