World Convergence
I watched the drama on Netflix and was severely disappointed by the ending. I then read reviews that the novel ends much differently, so I wanted to check it out. However, I could only find partially translated copies of the novel. Thank you so much for your work on translating this, and I would LOVE to see the entire novel translated. The characters in the novel are just so much more rich and interesting, and the story IS different than the drama. I am disappointed with some of the character choices made for the drama. Feng Zhiwei is a much stronger character in the novel, and does not seem dragged down to the level of defeated girl. I also like that Gu Nanyi is more the 2nd love interest in the novel than Helian. Helian is obviously more of a boy that Zhiwei messes with. I don't know what it would take to get this translation publicized in English, but I would love to help make that happen if possible. I absolutely would buy this novel and read it again and again.
I watched the drama on Netflix and was thoroughly disappointed with the ending, so went in search of the original book. This is a beautiful and well-written translation, and I appreciate the translatorβs time and effort in being this novel to life for English readers. To be able to convey the authorβs original feeling into a different language is no easy task and I am very impressed with the translation so far. Are you able to tell me how many chapters total? I want to make sure I have enough coins to complete the 3 volumes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you Aristophaneso for picking up this novel once agan and bringing it to life and giving us ( people who doesnβt understand Mandarin ) chance to enjoy it as well . The quality of the translation is beyond any expectation , itβs simply superb ππ»ππ»ππ» , im in love with how poetic and beautiful the story is and how thoughtful the person who translates it , letting us learn something only those who understand mainland chinese would understand . Bringing examples of original chinese ancient poetry or mentioning some geographical or cultural aspects of life which is not common for most of us . And the novel itself is brilliant β¨, itβs completely multidimensional with all what wuxia genre could bring , but its not over the top with cliche of a genre , rest assured ! Novel really brings complexity of human life and the life choices , and the characters itself ... Ning Yi , Feng Zhiwei , Gu Nan Yi , Helian Zheng only to say a few , those people will make you laugh and cry with them, on their journey , what a beautiful ,beautiful story . To all who looking for something decent and definitely deeply touching , please read this book , Im sure a lot of readers would enjoy this novel π And please support person who made it possible for us to read it , his dedication, commitment and absolutely outstanding level of translation deserves our best π Thank you π
This is one of the best books I have ever read! And I mean from world litterature not just Chinese novels. The main characters are truly unique- from the misterious ML to the so sharp, brilliant and cunning FL. One of the female characters ever. The book is beautifully writen and the world building is great! Definitely a must read!!! If you like real litterature mixed with a bit of Chinese fantasY, read this! You will not be disappointed !! β¨
You can find the next chapters of this story on the blog ninja-reflection. It is updated every monday. I am telling this because this story is so good and it is such a shame for the readers to not know what happens next (and it is very exciting !). I have hesitated but as the novel is completely dropped ... I will indeed be very happy if the writer here would come back because he updated frequently, had a beautiful writing and translated everything .. if that happens I will delete this commentary :).
Such an amazing story translated so professionally and beautifully. I am so happy I found it! I found out about this novel after watching the tv show. I love the differences in the characters when compared the to the drama but I also like how the tv show filled in some of the details where the book didn't go that deep. I feel the two version complements each other so well. Thanks again for your hard work on the translation!
