    These four books are really good. I'm usually the kind of person who gets bored halfway through and gives up. But I finished all of these, and they all have no special abilities or cheat codes. The male leads are all military officers. I highly recommend them!

    If you're looking for something to read, check this out! "The Great Sage Without Borders" doesn't feel like a mindless wish-fulfillment story.
