   It is a high-quality novel with new themes, a hard-core work for men in science and engineering, low-opening, high-speed, and slow-burning, magical, realistic, suspenseful, and brain-burning. The writing is eye-catching and the logic is rigorous. The narrative is funny but not ink, and there is no golden finger of the time-travel and rebirth system. The content covers history, workplace, military, scientific research, national security, criminal investigation, scheming, murder, as well as high-tech espionage, hacker warfare, and aerospace electronic warfare. The ending has a profound reversal and is tailor-made for old bookworms. If it doesn't look good, I will kill myself to death!

   No time travel, no dimensionality reduction, no modern technology. The protagonist relies on understanding the situation and spotting the right timing, not relying on knowledge to defeat him. Every decision is traceable and does not rely on outrageous settings to advance. Suitable for readers who are looking for a "brainful, not outrageous" book.

It is a good science fiction apocalyptic novel, and it is a must to follow it.
