    Of the four books I've read, I only recommend these four. All of them are without a male lead. I especially recommend the second and third books. In the second book, the female lead has a very strong "golden finger" (a powerful ability), but it doesn't feel like she completely relies on it. Her superpowers are also the strongest among humans. She has followers and admirers, which doesn't feel abrupt. The story focuses on infrastructure development in the mid-to-late stages. The female lead has clear likes and dislikes and isn't a villain or a saint. The third book is about game invasion, and it truly deserves to be ranked number one in the post-apocalyptic genre. The female lead is a bit cautious and timid in the early stages, basically eliminating all threats, but not out of fear; she's just increasing her strength. The mid-stages are very exciting, but she'll experience god-like games similar to dungeons. It's not just mindless fun; the later stages lean towards an infinite flow style. The emotions are very delicate. The protagonist's personality is extremely greedy yet cautious, and he almost never suffers losses. The early stages are slightly melodramatic with many comedic moments.

The last one is a novel about the entertainment industry, but it gets really exciting later on, which I won't spoil. In short, it's very good. My favorite, and the one I miss the most, is still the first one. You can ignore the male lead he mentions, since they don't have a romantic relationship; you can think of him as a subordinate.

    The first two books are self-explanatory; those who know, know. The third and fifth are, in my opinion, second only to the first two. The sixth book, with a male protagonist, is second only to the previous ones. I've read dozens, if not hundreds, of post-apocalyptic novels by Tomato, and I've put many on my bookshelf to avoid bad ones, so you can rest assured that every single one of these is guaranteed to be good.

    The quality of the books, ranked from highest to lowest, doesn't include any completely lone-wolf stories. The first book has many side quests, decent character development, and a relatively novel plot, but it's been a while, so I only remember there weren't any major flaws. The second book features a lone wolf protagonist early on, but later the female lead's team expands considerably, including some fluffy animals as her companions. The others are all watchable without much thought and are generally acceptable. The fifth and last books are more peaceful, with little plot development and focus on natural disasters.

    All are strong, no-romance post-apocalyptic novels. Except for the last one, which is still ongoing, the others are all completed, so you can read them without worry. The third one is a bit special; it's a lighthearted story about the zombies' adventures. Yes, the protagonist is a zombie. I read about a third of the fourth one, but didn't finish it. The beginning was pretty good, but I don't know if it has a bad ending. It's best to pick it up again if you're really looking for something to read. The last one is still updating; I've only read 100 chapters so far, and it seems pretty good. We'll have to see how the author performs from here on out. Recommended reading order: 1→2→5→3→4

    This is seriously amazing! This is a true "feel-good" story. The early parts, where the scheming woman and scumbag boyfriend are slapped in the face, are incredibly satisfying. Later on, it shows no mercy to various villains. Along the way, it also helps you meet some very friendly people and form a team. Most importantly, the writing is superb; I don't even know how to praise it enough. It's truly excellent. It's the most meticulously crafted post-apocalyptic novel I've ever read. Unlike those other novels that's been getting incredibly popular lately (around 9 PM), which I've read and I'm not a shill, those other novels are riddled with typos and missing words, severely impacting the reading experience. Even though the plot is excellent, my impression is still stuck on those typos and missing words.
