   The first book, set in the Northern and Southern Dynasties period, is, in my opinion, no less impressive than *The Scholar in the Upper Class*, and perhaps even slightly better. The author is also very learned, citing classical texts and demonstrating extensive knowledge of both ancient and modern times. Furthermore, the author possesses exceptional literary talent, writing poetry and lyrics; one piece, "A Couplet on Green Forest Mountain and Winding Stream," has a distinct Wei-Jin style. Absolutely a masterpiece. The second book, *The Three Kingdoms: Liu Feng*, was, frankly, a thrilling read. I only felt the ending was somewhat rushed, but it's still a peak of *The Three Kingdoms*. The third book, by the same author, is about Liu Shan's rebirth in the Three Kingdoms period, a hundred-year dream of Zhuge Liang. It's a new book.

    Having worked in the historical fiction genre for many years, I have some humble opinions. The characteristics of historical fiction lie in its character design, plot, and overall atmosphere, with atmosphere being paramount. Each new emperor brings his own court, and each era has its own unique character; maintaining historical accuracy is the most fundamental principle of historical fiction, and misattribution must be avoided at all costs. In addition, meticulous writing, lifelike characters, and vivid details are essential. The following novels are the best historical fiction I have ever read. Within their genre, calling them masterpieces, excellent works, or even good works is not an exaggeration. Readers can rest assured and enjoy them. [Thumbs up][Thumbs up][Thumbs up]
