White Mountains and Black Waters: I Am the Twelfth Boss

Sure, the plot has been mostly set up so far, and there aren't any major flaws. The use of a fictional setting is excellent; all the descriptions are set in the late Qing Dynasty. Seeing the naval defeat was truly infuriating. If the military budget and ammunition were adequate, even a defeat wouldn't have been so devastating.

I was wondering why this book resonated so deeply with me. I clicked on the author's profile picture and saw I'd read three of your books.

This novel is quite good, the only downside is that it only updates two chapters a day. Even if I send him gifts, he doesn't add more. If he could specify how many gifts to send and how many to add, I'd be willing to save up my allowance for a few days to send him a gift. The plot of this novel moves too slowly. I suggest waiting a month or two before rereading it.

Chapter 76 is the dividing line; the early transition was alright. I just don't know how well the military and war descriptions and details are handled. (I personally feel it's probably risky, mainly because your superpowers are too strong, like later battle reports where a thousand men easily chase tens of thousands, winning but only losing a few hundred).

It's pretty good, I think it's very good, but the cover doesn't quite match the work. When I saw this novel, the title combined with the cover made me think it was going to be a bad read. I only started reading because of the many five-star reviews; otherwise, I wouldn't have wanted to read it at all. I suggest the author change the cover.

It's interesting, vivid, and really quite enjoyable.

It looks good; I feel like watching it. The main and supporting characters aren't brainless.

I did a reading comprehension exercise on this piece when I was in school. It's extremely short and concise, and the last few words truly demonstrate its skill. Without the phrase "Nose has always been respectful," the satire would be much weaker. The description of the climax scene on the train is even more superb; the omission of Nose's facial expressions while he speaks creates a brilliant sense of ambiguity.

I've read up to chapter 27 so far, and it's very interesting. The protagonist is very vividly portrayed, with a youthful spirit, like a fledgling eagle chirping and hopping around, foraging for food and learning skills, with the feeling that one day it will be able to spread its wings and fly.

It's a good read, I really like this kind of novel. The plot moves quickly without any tedious or drawn-out scenes. Other novels can stretch that same story set in a military academy into dozens or even hundreds of chapters. I prefer this one.
