   I think every single one of these books has a great plot. The first one I've already read six times; it tells the story of a scheme the male protagonist spent decades setting up. The beginning is rather ordinary, but the later foreshadowing is particularly captivating. The male protagonist's personality changes from gentle to cold; he's a conman who fulfills the most precious promise—very enjoyable. The second book has fewer chapters, but the plot is excellent. The third book features a male protagonist who is emotionless, not invincible, but not weak either, making it very comfortable to read. The fourth book features a male protagonist with a rather detached personality but a touch of humor; the plot is also excellent, and the male protagonist is very strong. The fifth book features a male protagonist who plays various identities, each one incredibly handsome and powerful. The sixth book features a male protagonist who is both intelligent and daring, winning challenges through his wisdom.
