   The zombies aren't the traditional kind, often simply called "crazy zombies." They amplify the evil in humanity to an extreme, and the "zombies" are quite intelligent—the premise is very fresh!

   All of them are quite good. Those with poor writing are unreadable. They're not mindless novels. The first book, although its rating is a bit low, is still good. The first three are zombie novels, and the last two are about natural disasters. All are completed, except for the fourth, which is still being serialized. So far, it seems pretty good. I rarely read novels that are still being serialized, so I'm planning to wait until it's fully released before reading it. The fifth book felt a bit depressing after reading it; I thought the ending was a bit tragic, but it's definitely worth reading—highly recommended!! The sixth, seventh, and eighth books are infinite flow novels, and the protagonists are all quite intelligent. The sixth book has two male leads, while the eighth and seventh books have no romantic pairing.

    I opened it today and read about 50 chapters. The author is amazing! The protagonist is a chosen one, and the supporting and villainous characters are all incredibly intelligent. The clashes between these powerful figures are truly captivating. The character development is superb; it kept me on the edge of my seat late at night. The perspective is also very interesting—a mother zombie infecting humans, inherently on the villain's side. The concept is brilliant, and in every battle, new characters emerge, each with their own distinct traits. These battles are brilliantly written, incredibly vivid. Therefore, I absolutely must recommend this seemingly niche, not-so-long zombie novel to everyone! [Thumbs up] It's great!
