Talking about a military fiction, I haven't read or talked about this in 6-7 years so my memory is definitely a bit hazy. I may start to wrap up this podcast as I feel any future material I have will suffer quality-wise and my podcast is not high quality in the first place.No raw link... because I have no idea what happened after the Gravity Tales and Webnovel acquisition.

Going over a wuxia novel by an extremely talented author. I create a new rating called the wuxia degenercy scale, detailing the various tropes and styles of wuxia novels.
