Male- or female-targeted novels are both fine.
Historical Fiction! The Characters Must Have Brains!!
Are there stories where a modern person transmigrates back to ancient times and uses their profession to make a difference? Like a doctor who transmigrates to the past and advances medicine within the limits of the era, or a modern special forces expert who transmigrates to ancient times and builds an army using modern ideas. Or just invent penicillin or something. From the start, they pull out an AK-47.

I've read 1,596 books, for a total of 2,838 hours and 38 minutes, and still have 682 books on my shelf. I'm really out of things to read. I won't ramble on, just recommend anything, any genre.
History RPF… History RPF!
If I don't read any more historical RPF, I'm going to die 😭 Pre-Qin, Qin, Han, Three Kingdoms, Tang, Song... anything is fine 😭 Crawling around in the shadows, searching everywhere for something to read.
Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction. No Mindless Power Trips or Brain-Dead Plotting
I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...
Song Can Fall, but the World Must Not!
All the ministers face south, but you alone face north. You won't regret it until the royal court is conquered! Push forward! Push forward for me! If there is a hero who can reclaim our land and save the people, then he deserves to claim that land for himself and rule over the people! Please recommend novels like "Shaosong".
This Is More of a Discussion Thread: The Highest-Quality Historical Novels Are on Tomato Novel
I've been using Tomato for a while. It's a hub for lightweight novels to pass the time, and quality gems are rare. Overall, historical fiction has the highest average quality. Plenty of books have flaws, but you can tell the authors put in real effort. Most of the books I've finished have been historical fiction.
Historical Stories (Any Dynasty, No System, and with Intelligent Characters)

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.

This is not a time-travel novel that takes place every second. The plot of the story is reasonable and the relationship between the characters is well-understood. Unlike some time-travel stories, which feel refreshing at first glance, but stop and think about it, they feel absurd and completely unreasonable. This book is unhurried, has a slow pace, and the writing is clean and not sloppy. Worth a look!
Come on, the part that didn't change history is good too. Su Shi's writing is very real, and there are obvious shadows of "The New Biography of Su Dongpo". I look forward to seeing the growth of the protagonist, hurry, hurry, hurry!! Zhe Zong should also appear soon!
The author is very attentive and very readable. It is the best Song fic I have read so far. Although it is a fan work, the author was not lazy and checked various information very carefully. Every word (exaggeration) can feel the strong patriotism and national will. The logical thinking is very strong and innovative, and the rhythm is actually very good. However, if you are more concerned about comments, it would be better to finish writing the court first, and make the household chores that have nothing to do with the court or have too little relevance as extras. This can make the characters full and three-dimensional without affecting the writing rhythm. (I feel that I am obviously nervous and concerned about the changing situation in the court, and the sudden insertion of family gossip will indeed cause controversy.) The scene switching is also done perfectly, especially the multi-line transition in the description of the war. The tacit cooperation between the court frontiers and the multiple fronts is more exciting and immersive. I particularly like this way of writing, and I also like this kind of author the most. While showing the original appearance of history, he also reasonably imagines another possibility. Not everyone knows every time point. Being able to narrate and explain directly helps reading and understanding the author's meaning. Those appropriate summaries also help keep up with the author's ideas. Moreover, the author's writing style is very good and will not give people the feeling that the word count of the original text is too low. Overall, it is a sincere work and very good.
When I first started watching it, I thought the protagonist was a cool guy who knew everything, but later I found out that the protagonist was just an ordinary modern person with strong abilities, who relied on his obsession with the Song Dynasty to change. Actively lobbying in the face of various objections from the elders and ministers of the DPRK. In other previous time-travel novels, there were always one or two paragraphs that we now find very famous and inspiring, and the veterans or elders were convinced! But it doesn't happen here. Just like when we face our elders, we are always told by our elders that we are still young and don't understand the seriousness of the matter, or simply ignore our words and go our own way, thinking that we think about things too simply, but in many cases we don't need to think too complicated, but sometimes it is true that we don't think comprehensively enough. Things never go smoothly for the protagonist here. All success is the result of the efforts of all parties, which is another very real possibility. Worth a look!
The writing is vivid, and the main characters such as Su Shi and Su Che have distinct personalities. The interaction between the protagonist and Wang Anshi and others, and the relationship with his family give people a warm feeling. The narrative rhythm is well controlled, the language is fluent, the expressions are clear, and it is very comfortable to watch. It can be seen that the author has conducted careful research. There is basically no problem with the official position and title, and it also reflects the social style of the Song Dynasty. However, sometimes it feels a little flat, and the conflicts are not intense enough. It would be more interesting if it could create some waves. Overall, the writing is good. I am looking forward to how it will develop in the future. Keep up the good work, author!
What I like is that the setting is in line with the traditional historical literature of the time. There is no brainless coolness, no cheating (system), and the characters are more three-dimensional. The author greatly continues to maintain [learned]
When I read Chapter 11, I was already in tears. The author's writing style is very good. It combines the powerlessness of the time traveler with the sad atmosphere, giving people a sense of desolation, anger and regret for the passing of Jing Gong, as well as a spontaneous admiration for Wang Anshi, who stood up and turned the tide under the oppression of the times. Jinggong was talented and heroic, and the long words of such a person will undoubtedly make people lament and lament him.
The plot and conception are all excellent, the characters are consistent with historical facts, the pace is slow, and it is a rare good article to be read carefully. The only thing I am curious about is that with such intervention, Mr. Dongpo's experience and mood in his later years must have changed. Will "Transcendent Taiwan Chronicle" and others appear again?
This article is so well written, why is the rating so low? What's the point? Is it because you don't understand or what? This is a very good book, and the description of Dongpo is better than what most people write. The literary foundation is so solid and the plot is relaxing. Aren't these advantages? Su Guo, isn't he a vivid person?
After reading the whole book, it is very well written. From the storyline, it can be seen that the author has put a lot of effort into historical materials. The portrayal of the characters is also very good, especially the plot of Wang Anshi is particularly touching. The description of life in the book is also very detailed, and the interaction between the couple also made me feel their happiness outside the book (personally, I think these descriptions of life are a kind of spice and cannot be the main body of this kind of article, but it is also an indispensable part). All in all, this is an excellent time-travel novel. Maybe it's not very popular because of the title, but I think it shouldn't be buried.
