Any Original Stories? I’m Sick of These Same Old Popular Plots
Recommend some fresh, original fantasy novels. No mainstream tropes, no lousy rebirth stories, no urban novels where the protagonist shows off and bumps into a beauty around the corner, and no apocalyptic stories with superpowers or a System. Are there any fantasy novels outside those categories? Ideally, something with a fresh premise and theme.
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.

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...

Genderbending (Male to Female), Showing Off, Cool and Badass: Can't Miss a Thing

It's good, but I arrived a bit early. There are only a few words so far, it's not enough! Please update! It doesn't need to be finished right away, just a hundred or so chapters a day would be enough! 😳
It's a unique ensemble piece, very well written. The protagonist isn't just a person, but more like a spirit, a legacy. So far, it's set in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is fine as long as it's within the Han Dynasty. However, I'm more concerned about how the author will portray the Tang Dynasty, or even later periods, to convey the feeling of loyalty to the Han.
Author, please write faster!!! I can't put it down! This is the best historical novel I've ever read, bar none! With such a brilliant writing style, how can you so easily dismiss it as inferior? Hurry up and release 50 chapters! (Coughs lightly twice, holding a handkerchief) Zijuan, look at the crabapple blossoms outside the window, they're in full bloom...
The novel is quite good. Most of the content is realistic, with no inaccurate historical events. It's also an ensemble piece, not a single protagonist, but a family portrait centered around the main character. I've read many novels, including quite a few historical ones, but few are as well-written as this one.
This book is truly captivating; it has once again allowed me to appreciate the allure of history. Every time I read about the King of Liaodong sacrificing himself to protect the Han dynasty, I can't help but tear up. So admirable. It's only a pity that history didn't unfold this way. Alas.
This is the first time I've been so interested in a history book. The author's writing style is excellent, and the plot is smooth and engaging, making it a very worthwhile read. It's just a bit short, but that's understandable given the slow pace of the story.
There's not much to say, it's just good to read. The author's writing is good, and so far, it's very comprehensive. I'm very interested in this genre, but I'm also quite picky, so it's rare that this book is so enjoyable. However, I suggest the author add more side stories. That would make it more interesting.
It's a good novel. I hope the author doesn't ruin it later on. Keep it up!
This book is quite interesting. The author seems to be a novice, as the writing style is a bit weak, but the subject matter is indeed very novel. After reading so many books, it's a good choice to change things up. However, it feels like the author is going to go into too much detail about the Three Kingdoms period; otherwise, there's a lack of material.
It's so good, but I'm a little heartbroken. Author, please get up and update 20 chapters a day! 🥰
