Please Recommend High-Quality Zombie Apocalypse Stories
I don't want that generic A City, B City stuff. It feels so half-hearted. I want something grounded in reality, though mutations are fine. The worldbuilding should be clear, the zombies should be powerful, and the protagonist should be smart and not a womanizer.

Looking for Stories Where One Soul Has Two or More Bodies, Without Independent Consciousnesses
A lot of stories I've seen about one soul controlling two or more bodies focus on the bodies and forget about the soul. I want a story where one person controls different bodies simultaneously, not "two people with the same memories." The different bodies should just be other shells, not another me.

The author of this book clearly has excellent writing skills; the content is very interesting, exciting, and vivid, making the reader feel as if they are there. I hope the author will write more books like this! 🙌🙌
I never criticize the writing. If you don't like it, you simply don't read it. If you like it, you can cheer on the author! It's not good to work so hard on a book only to be criticized. If you like it, please support the author!
Of all the rebirth/apocalyptic novels I've read, this one definitely surpasses all the others. The protagonist has a good character, and aside from his somewhat sleazy extreme X-ray vision skill, his other skills are quite impressive, such as being a master thief.
To be honest, I only downloaded Tomato Book because of this novel, and it's really great ⸝⸝· ᴥ ·⸝⸝ Everything about it is excellent. [I just realized I don't have a book review yet, I'll post one when I get back.]
The book's plot is tightly structured and well-organized, with foreshadowing constantly unfolding. Unlike the plethora of post-apocalyptic rebirth novels, the reasons for each event are revealed later in the story. The language is simple yet nuanced, blending humor with warmth.
At first, I thought it was a post-apocalyptic novel, but as I read on, I discovered that it encompasses a complete world system, evolving from an initial apocalypse to the development of various races across the universe—the content is incredibly rich. Furthermore, the protagonist's development is logical and orderly, unlike most novels where the protagonist is invincible from the start.
I only started writing this novel because of Tomatoes. This is also my first book. The author's ideas are clear, and it deserves this five-star rating. Keep up the good work, author!
The plot emphasizes cultivation and the protagonist's ability improvement, boasts a grand world view, and the protagonist's power advancement is mostly reasonable. Some plot points are novel and refreshing. However, the story lacks emotional depth, resulting in underdeveloped characters and a story that fails to resonate with readers.
This is an incredibly good post-apocalyptic novel; the female protagonist's bonds in the early stages surpass those of most other novels.
This book contains elements of post-apocalyptic rebirth and online games. Unlike other authors who build harems, the author focuses on the protagonist's self-improvement, resulting in both gains and losses.
