A new Immortal has risen... and with him, the fate of all the realms hangs in the balance.

Long Wu Ying has ascended to the Heavens, fulfilling the ultimate dream of all cultivators. However, the heavens are not all that it seems, and his vow to raise his lover to the realms of immortality conflicts with the Jade Palace’s rules.

In the Middle Kingdom, the fracturing of an empire echoes across the kingdoms. As states rush to fill the power vacuum, war-weary armies march with little food, weakened by years of drought. Wu Ying’s mortal friends are caught in the middle of the conflict. As leaders among cultivators and within their sect, they must do what they can to hold the world together and carry on without their closest ally.

When chaos consumes the realms above and below, even the greatest cultivators must surrender to the winds of fate.

Immortal Connections is the first book in Celestial Cataclysms, the new epic xianxia fantasy series by Tao Wong. Taking place in the same world as A Thousand Li, it delves into realms old and new, making it perfect for longtime fans and first-time listeners alike.

The Celestial Cataclysms series is the sequel to A Thousand Li and takes place after Long Wu Ying has gained immortality and ascended to the Heavens. The first book, Immortal Connections, talks about people and events from A Thousand Li so you should have read that series first or you would be a little lost.

I have been awaiting for months for this book to be available and am pleased to say that it did not disappoint. Pacing is on the slow side but this is typical for A Thousand Li as well, which is part of the reason the book clocks in at a massive 29 hours. The narrator did a good job and kept me interested, 4.5 stars.

No spoilers, though I will just say that like in A Thousand Li, poor Long Wu Ying can't seem to catch a break, even after becoming an immortal. :)

Looking forward to Book 2.

Book altogether Very good, took a while to get used to a new narrator and new voicec for already known charakters,but all good new. Only negaive is that I expected more about Wu ying himself and a little less from middle kingdom. Great anyways.

Next please

So to start with I'll say that this is both different and the same as a thousand li, especially the later books in the previous series.

Now this comes with its ups and downs, the first of which is the way the author handles doing split perspective and how much he focuses on each character. The problem I found in this book is that although I'm interested in the characters separated from the mc its not enough to want to see them as much as I did in this book, if anything it makes me want to see their perspectives less. This is due to the fact that it feels as if you never really follow the mcs story as you constantly get side tracked with another's story, this would be fine if not for how often this happens.

Now onto the new reader. Overall he does a decent job, but the problems arise when he does female voices as its incredibly hard to distinguish between them and the male voices making it incredibly hard to follow conversations, unlike the previous reader who did a good job of changing his voice enough to tell the difference between who's talking. Although I will say that this author does improve as the story goes on but his mic doesn't help him at all as it does have points where it gets quite crackly.

Overall enjoyed the story and am happy with the length this one was, just wish the other perspectives were more spaced out between the mcs and the mc was given a bit more time and space in this book as he only really had 25 percent of time in this book.

Good and bad
