[Invincible] + [Satisfying read] + [Urban] + [Pseudo-science fiction] + [Not a do-gooder]
Ten years ago, Liu Xing, a young man from a small town, vanished without a trace.
Ten years later, Liu Xing returns at the head of a space fleet.
When his cousin gets tricked into going to northern Myanmar, Liu Xing leads an alien mercenary force there to rescue him.
Technologies like controlled nuclear fusion, particle shields, and spatial jumps drive the countries of Earth into a frenzy.
Northern Myanmar: “I was just running a telecom scam. You didn’t have to bombard us with a planet-buster!”
America: “The days of Blue Star’s top technological superpower are over.”
Japan: “Xi xi wu zhuo wei jun jie.”
Rich oil tycoon: “I’ll pay a trillion dollars for your technology.”
Liu Xing, who only wants to keep a low profile: “Don’t be afraid, everyone. I just want to bring peace to Earth.”
The red flag will one day fly across the entire globe.
Would a cosmic behemoth care about the feelings of a tiny ant crawling on Earth? That's a bit of a letdown. The subject matter, however, is appealing.
People with poor health should be cautious about consuming this poison, as there is no cure.
Not bad. I thought it was just a formulaic, feel-good story, but it actually has its own unique style.
You're starting a book this fast, kid? Are you out of your mind?
Tears well up in my eyes as I wander far from home.
Beautiful, five-star review
