Literary Critique: Mo Dao Zu Shi
May. 23rd, 2022 11:18 pm....or rather: Notes I took while reading. I’m reading this because everyone is reading it, and also, a friend of mine pointed out that the story has two of my favorite fantasy tropes: necromancy (YAY) and musical instruments as magical weapons (YAY!!!), so, I decided to give it a try. I’m just sharing my impressions; trying to avoid plot spoilers beyond what’s already known from the blurb. (I’m only somewhere in the middle, anyway, so I can’t spoil too much.)
( cut because rambling )
Which means... I have to go and keep reading. RIGHT NOW. (Yeah, I understand now why this story is kind of addictive! I haven't watched the animation or other adaptations yet but will have to do so!)
