    Reader note

    The first and fourth books are my favorites. The fourth book starts with the protagonist serving under Lü Bu, and ends with him working for Cao Cao. I found the early part of the third book very good, but I dropped it because of the system, becoming one of his wives, and the free special treatment. The change in the early part was significant, so I abandoned it. I haven't read the second and fifth books much, so it's up to you to decide. I haven't read the second and fifth books recently either, so consider it yourself. I highly recommend the fourth book, followed by the first.
