Thought I had written a review after watching the first few episodes. I guess did not. I would have rated it higher after the first few episodes but then it went completely bizarre and I was left thinking (did I miss a bunch of episodes)? I don't know but it did. I have recently started watching Wuxia-Cdrama and this big production wasn't as good as half of them. If I remember correctly Toranga was charged with a crime punishable by death in the first episode but ( sorry but I've watched so many series in the past month) but I now read a summary and it talks about Toranga and Blackthorne being ambitous men but Blackthorne was bullied into helping Toranga who to me is still unclear of his big ambitions and even what they were and what power he had to in act wield it. What was good in the beginning became an unclear muddled story.
