"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is my country's first full-length retrospective historical romance novel. It describes the historical events of nearly a hundred years from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the early years of the Western Jin Dynasty. It reflects the political and military struggles between the three political groups of Wei, Shu, and Wu. It focuses on the penetration and transformation of various social contradictions in the Three Kingdoms era, summarizes the great historical changes of this era, and creates a number of all-powerful heroes. "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" depicts nearly 200 characters, among which the most successful ones include Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, Guan Yu, Liu Bei and others. Zhuge Liang is the incarnation of the "virtuous prime minister" in the author's mind. He has the noble character of "devoting his whole life to the end of his life" and his ambition to help the people in modern times and recreate a peaceful and prosperous age. The author also endows him with the magical ability to control the wind and rain and make miraculous calculations. Cao Cao was a treacherous hero. His creed in life was "I would rather teach me to betray the world than teach the world to betray me." He was both talented and strategic, but also cruel and treacherous. He was a political careerist and conspirator. This cannot be confused with the real Cao Cao in history. Guan Yu is powerful and resolute, and his righteousness is as heavy as a mountain. Zhang Fei is outspoken and full of innocence and recklessness. Liu Bei was portrayed by the author as a model of a benevolent king who was kind to the people, loved things, courteous to the virtuous, and knew people well. At the same time, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" describes wars, large and small, with grand ideas and diverse techniques, allowing us to clearly see war scenes of swords, blood, and blood. Among them, the descriptions of war scenes such as the Battle of Guandu and the Battle of Chibi are ups and downs, making it thrilling to read.

100,000 years ago, there were at least 6 different human species on the earth, but today only 1 remains, Homo sapiens. What happened to cause the rest of the human species to disappear? What will happen to us Homo sapiens? The famous Israeli historian Yuval Harari pioneered the combination of history and science to tell the complete story of the history of Homo sapiens from the Big Bang to the present. Professor Yuval Harari believes that in the long evolutionary history of Homo sapiens from an inconspicuous animal to the ruler of the earth, three key revolutions took place: the cognitive revolution, the agricultural revolution and the scientific revolution. The cognitive revolution gave Homo sapiens the ability to create imaginary orders and fictional stories, completely surpassing other species; the agricultural revolution allowed Homo sapiens to move from a hunter-gatherer life to a settled life, with revolutionary changes in lifestyle and social organization; the scientific revolution allowed Homo sapiens to become a god-like "creator" and gain dominance over the entire earth. Professor Yuval Harari also reminded us to look forward, because in the past few decades, we have begun to violate the law of natural selection, which has been the law of life for the past 4 billion years. Today, we have not only gained the ability to design the world around us, but also gained the ability to design ourselves. Where will this lead us, and what kind of human beings do we want to be? It's time to redefine "human". "A Brief History of Mankind" is a global bestseller that abandons the old interpretive framework and proposes subversive ideas, giving us a new understanding of our own existence.

In these science fiction stories, Reynolds focuses on exploring alien civilizations, interstellar civilizations, and artificial intelligence as the protagonists, stories about love, hatred, human nature and other themes. Through special methods, he creates interstellar civilizations that are completely different from the barbaric aliens in previous science fiction works who prey on the weak and follow the laws of the Black Forest. The philosophical thinking contained in it is thought-provoking, the strange world view, subversive suspense plot, and dreamlike scene construction are both brain-burning and profound, fantastic and confusing, and it can be called a masterpiece.

The story unfolds through the personal narration of the protagonist Paul Boymer. During World War I, 19-year-old Paul Boymer was inspired by "patriotism" and volunteered to join the army with his classmates. However, the cruelty of war and military life was completely beyond imagination. In boot camp, they are forced to abandon their former faith in knowledge and freedom and undergo a radical transformation. After a short training, the recruits were sent to the front line to fight, and what they saw and heard was cruel: the trenches were full of rats and lice; severe infectious diseases threatened the life of every soldier; comrades were killed one by one, or were injured and sent to field hospitals; the field hospitals were poorly equipped and lacked medicines, and the mortality rate of injured patients was extremely high.

At this time, the war is becoming more and more fierce, and the future is confused...

The Black Sailor on the Narcissus (conrad Classic)

"The Black Sailor on the Narcissus" is a unique novel that can be seen as an allegory for human existence. What is particularly unique is that Joseph Conrad set the stage on the sea - a place that is unfamiliar to ordinary writers but familiar to him, and wrote about the typical situations and characteristics of human beings. Human beings are small, fragile, and covered in stains, but they are not unforgivable. It is those simple and tenacious souls that support the backbone of human existence. Conrad used a ship and a voyage to vividly demonstrate the various possibilities of human nature. His narrative skills and meticulous thinking have created this unique style of work.
