Of Hunters and Immortals, Book 1

A Cultivation Progression Fantasy

By: Shadowwing

Narrated by: Daniel Wisniewski

The path of immortals is a long one. Jiang doesn't have time to take it slow.

Jiang is a hunter in a quiet village far from the world of sects, spirits, and soaring swords. When powerful bandits destroy his village and steal his family, he resolves to do anything to get them back.

Even become a cultivator.

Jiang has three weeks to ignite his core—a feat that takes most years to accomplish. To actually join the sect, he must impress the elders, and none of them expect anything from a backwater kid faking his age to meet the minimum for admission.

Among immortals, he is a peasant. A child. A nobody. Until his prodigious natural talent becomes as difficult to ignore as his sharp tongue.

He’ll shatter expectations and limits—even if he has to go it alone.

Excellent story

The pacing was perfect, not to fast not too slow. Amazing world building and original concepts with a base of familiarity. Honestly enjoyed this story so much I was upset to find there wasn’t a second book available yet. Well worth the cost.

It was ok

It wasn’t terrible, although I have never understood the whole Asian names and English accents thing. The mc can be a little annoying but overall not bad.

worth the listen

Its a Great story,and it doesn't get boring. I can wait for book 2.

it's a pretty good book

it's a little slow in the beginning but it really picks up at the end also I really did enjoy the book might not be for everyone though

Such a great book!

I loved everything about the book. Great characters and character building, fun world building and the story was original. The narrator did a great job as always. looking forward to the next book!
