No System, no System, no System. Thanks, everyone.
Looking for High-Quality Alternate-History Novels
For example, the Qin and Tang dynasties.
Historical Fiction That Feels Realistic
No System, and nothing about The Legend of Qin. Just straight historical fiction.
Meticulously Researched Historical Fiction
A twisting, suspenseful plot, a protagonist who's not an idiot, and something I can learn from while reading. Ideally, it should be close to real history.
Any Excellent Historical Novels?!
I'm sick of those power-fantasy stories where the protagonist shows off all the time!
The Pinnacle of Historical Fiction
Share your favorite historical novels, whether they have fantasy elements or not. Let's talk about them.
Over 2,000 Chapters About Building an Army and Founding a Dynasty
Over 2,000 chapters, about someone raising an army and founding a dynasty, with martial arts.
Historical Fiction That Doesn't Dumb Down the Characters
I want a protagonist with brains
Looking for Superbly Written Historical Novels!
I've read The Chief Ministers, A Scholar of Superior Character, A First-Rank Official, A Generation's Military Advisor, The Son-in-Law, The Beauty of the Rivers and Mountains, The Unification of the Mountains and Rivers, I Picked Up Qin Shi Huang, The End of Song, New Song, and Joy of Life. Are there any similar novels with a highly intelligent protagonist who plans everything in advance?

I Can't Believe Historical Fiction Writers Can Be This Good
A fact-based educational book written using sources from official history, but not boring!
Epic War Novels With Grand, Passionate Battle Scenes
Guys, any novels with epic, large-scale battle scenes? Passionate ones are fine too. It doesn't have to be war or fantasy, anything goes as long as the battles are grand.
Looking for Books by Authors Who've Lost Their Traffic and Can't Keep Writing, and Are About to Quit
Looking for a book like "I Came from the Wasteland". Any kind of book is fine. I don’t want to miss any gems that had to stop because they weren’t getting enough readers.
Desperately Short on Historical Fiction, Please Recommend Some to Save Me From This Reading Drought
Preferably a historical novel with a realistic feel.
The Pinnacle of Historical Fiction
Looking for books similar to "Tang Dynasty: Defying the Imperial Decree Is the Only Way to Get Stronger". This book makes me cry every time I read it. I've read it five or six times, and I still cry. I just can't believe anything else is better. It's the strongest historical novel in my book! An 8.9 rating is way too low. I'd give it a 9.
Looking for Well-Written Political Intrigue Novels
I want a smart female lead with a high status who knows when to keep a low profile or conceal her abilities 🙈 No scummy fathers and stepmothers, or concubine half-sisters constantly causing petty trouble in the household. No sweet romance, just a pure historical power struggle 🤗

The emperor defends the nation's borders; the ruler dies for the state.
Political Intrigue, High Quality, Historical

First and foremost, the writing is solid. The classical Chinese dialogues are very elegant, and the styles of the *Li Sao* and the *Shi Jing* are also handled well. It's serious where it needs to be, humorous where it needs to be, and tense where it needs to be. This is a boon for those who enjoy classical Chinese.
Absolutely a great book. However, due to its niche audience, it's incredibly obscure on Tomato Bookstore. It's definitely worth reading. In my opinion as an eleven-year veteran reader of Tomato Bookstore, the writing style, vocabulary, and the author's humble and ambitious attitude are all top-notch even on paid websites! Look how long I've been watching!
A high-quality historical article; history enthusiasts shouldn't miss it. The writing is fluent, demonstrating the reader's strong literary skills, particularly in classical Chinese. The dialogue is consistent with the context of the Warring States period, giving it a rich, ancient feel.
Among Tomato's Warring States period dramas, I wouldn't say it's number one, but it's definitely in the top three! Much better than those protagonists who are Qin Shi Huang's illegitimate sons, wield systems, and just kill their way through the land. [Full of food] Hopefully, it won't end badly or be discontinued. We also hope that readers will recommend it. The only downside is that there's a lot of historical content, making the plot a bit slow. 🥺
It's very well written and can be ranked alongside "I Am King in the Spring and Autumn Period," "Survival Guide in the Spring and Autumn Period," "The Ambitious Men of the Warring States Period," and "The Age of Great Contention."
A rare collection of high-quality Warring States period texts and historical texts. The author has a strong command of language and a solid historical foundation. In particular, the dialogue between the characters is described very well, using a lot of quasi-classical Chinese (of course, not pure classical Chinese, otherwise no one would understand it).
I stumbled upon this book and read all sixty chapters in one go. I have some things to say! "Warring States: You, a Weak Nation, Survive, But You Defy Fate" is a novel with a historical time-travel background. Through rich historical details and a captivating plot, the author showcases the complexity and cruelty of human nature during the Warring States period.
The turbulent Warring States period is captured in a single book. The author possesses extensive historical knowledge; both the choice of words and the construction of sentences convey a profound sense of history, making the reader feel as if they have stepped into that era—a world of both cunning and ruthless maneuvering, rife with intrigue and scheming.
A truly captivating novel about the Warring States period and its powerful states vying for supremacy! The Warring States period was a pivotal era in Chinese history, following the Spring and Autumn period. After protracted wars for supremacy, the number of vassal states within the Zhou Dynasty's territory decreased significantly.
Among numerous historical time-travel novels, this one, without any system assistance, managed to capture my attention with its unique charm and profound meaning. This novel, with its purely historical background and character settings, showcases the author's deep historical knowledge and superb narrative skills.
