    Reader note

    You should read these books. The first two are ensemble pieces, a lively and fun group of people together, but with a clear main storyline. Unlike typical cultivation worlds and sects, the various factions are generally harmonious, though hidden dangers lurk. (No sect wars, fewer scoundrels.) Lots of laughs are brewing. If you enjoy a group of people working together to heal the sick and save lives, this is the one for you. (But it's actually quite insightful, directly addressing various social contradictions—impressive!) The second book features a generally lively group of protagonists, each with their own hidden agendas, strong morals, and an interesting premise. How do they work together despite differing stances? This book offers some answers. (The individual soldier mecha elements are super cool!) The last two books are less lighthearted, but everyone still contributes, showing courage and strategy. The third book features characters with unique abilities, working together to fight forces that threaten the country and its people, both overtly and covertly. The team occasionally bickers, but that's when Sheng An arrives! The fourth book is fraught with danger, but witness the incredible reflexes of our Chinese girl group as they overcome perilous situations. Memorable characters from various countries emerge, the plot is tight and logical, and while it includes horror elements, its core is truly awe-inspiring. The setting and protagonist's personality are more interesting than many other supernatural tales. You must read it!

    This ensemble fantasy novel is absolutely amazing! The conman protagonist leads a group of powerful figures through a dungeon, with so many plot twists that it's mind-blowing, and the Cthulhu-esque mystery is off the charts. You won't be able to stop reading once you've finished it.

    The first book needs no introduction. The second book's protagonist transmigrates into the book and becomes the male lead. You think the system is ordinary? He's the author.

    Under the guise of a romance game, it's actually a desperate battle for a lone city. Ambiguous feelings clash with the chaos of war, and all tenderness becomes exceptionally fragile in the face of life and death. Every character is fully fleshed out; many scenes brought tears to my eyes, and the ending was heartbreaking. It took me a long time to recover after finishing it. A must-read for anyone looking for something to read!!!
