It was an alright story, charmingly irreverent though I'd probably place it firmly in the Young Adult category, irrespective of the main characters being adult.
It fits the vision of godly creatures being somewhat immature so that's OK, though the romance between Lady Jing and Mr. Lee was a touch uncomfortable on account of that perceived maturity gap. I think I'd have been more comfortable if the hero was another immortal with the same... maturity level?
Overall, alright, but I don't see myself continuing the series.
