    Reader note

    The first book is a gangster story? A police thriller? A realistic urban drama? It seems to be none of these, yet it's all of them! "Ideal" (with its boundless imagination of the above elements) is a fitting description; it's truly a book that slowly draws you in. The second book satisfies all your curiosity about wilderness adventures and legends, plus life-or-death battles in the wild! The third book depicts the passionate era of educated youth and the powerful weaponry of a great nation, representing a generation's profound memories and unwavering ideals. The fourth book features underground treasure hunting, mysterious masters, legends, and more… a strange book where reality and legend blend seamlessly. The fifth book is reminiscent of many anti-Japanese war dramas, but this one is so realistically imagined it's almost solidified. It includes rescuing the Red Army during the Eastern Expedition, fighting local warlords, and the Eighth Route Army's brutal defeat of the Japanese invaders—an idealized version of the brutal battlefields of that era. Crucially, everything is written naturally without any sense of inconsistency! The sixth book is also a passionate anti-Japanese war drama, but set in a tropical Southeast Asia, presenting the history of the Expeditionary Force vividly and ideally to the reader. The seventh book shares some scenes with the previous book, but the fighting style is different, yet it's equally full of youthful passion! The eighth book can be seen as a lighthearted and humorous anti-Japanese war drama, similar to the movie "Raise Your Hands." After watching too many epic and dramatic films, it's nice to relax with a lighthearted comedy about fighting the Japanese invaders! Books nine through eleven are some new works I've been following recently (the last one is my own humble work: out of personal bias [smirk]). Some are written with delicate and vivid prose, while others have ingenious and clever plots. They are worth looking forward to! It's an honor for an old bookworm (a new author) to sincerely share with more people the good books and my reflections on them, which I deeply empathized with the protagonists of, over the past three or four years (books one through nine).
