I won't write many recommendations, but I promise they're all quality reads. I update this list slowly, since I have to find books I can actually stick with first (= ̄ω ̄=) No need to send flowers, it's a waste of money.
Reason Above All
This list mainly features books with no female lead, sensible characters, and imaginative premises. I'll make this a trustworthy list. I hope you'll follow and save it.
A Roundup of Dark Stories with No Female Leads and Decisive Protagonists: Pure Darkness Is Hard to Find
No romance. No bleeding hearts. Either dark or ruthlessly decisive. Some are niche works, while others are by big-name authors.

I prefer stories with no female lead, and themes of ruthlessness and self-interest
【Dark Fiction】Stories Never Die, and Passion Lives On
A tribute to the authors who create out of love. I want to record stories that are destined to disappear, and hope they'll see the light of day again sometime in the future. (I prefer stories with no female lead and darker themes. I like stories that don't follow formulas, and I care about the prose.) (The list owner has completed a novel, "Infinite Strange Games," and is currently serializing "The Game of Sinners." Please add them to your collection, leave a comment, and show your support~~~)
Dark Fiction, Supernatural Stories, and Infinite Worlds
Some dark stories, some completed books, and some fresh sprouts. There are a few infinite-loop stories, plus some newly started supernatural fiction.
【The Dark Bookshop】Top Picks: Levelheaded Leads and Wild Ideas
I mainly recommend books with fresh premises, well-developed characters, smart protagonists and supporting characters, or gripping plots. Dark, unlimited-flow, horror, and fantasy: books with these elements get priority. Updated every Monday (I hope. I'll do my best). The least-liked books will be removed. If a book gets so many negative reviews that they reach half its likes, I'll take it off the list.
A Place for Fantasy
For a work to count as fantasy, in the narrow sense of the term, it needs a complete world of its own. Stories that grow out of such a world are what we call fantasy. The first category is mainstream fantasy, or epic fantasy. Often compared with sword-and-sorcery fantasy, it focuses on grander themes and broader plots. Rather than individual adventures, it deals with political struggles, wars between nations, and the fate of the world. Works in this category tend to be meticulously written and r
Smart Characters, No Saintly Heroines, No System
Updates whenever I feel like it. (Not sure if you've noticed, but lately I've been updating at night. Hiding my face, hiding my face, hiding my face.) No restrictions on content. Male- and female-oriented novels are both welcome. If you have any recommendations, leave them in the comments. If you like the novels I've recommended, please rate them and save this list. Thanks (λಡ_ಡ゙) I'll remove a book if its bad reviews exceed 6 out of 10 (once there are more than ten reviews). If there aren't m
The Reasonable Reader (Infinite Worlds / Crossover Anime / Alternate Dimensions / Fan Fiction / Anime)
The protagonist must be smart and absolutely not a bleeding heart. No female lead is a bonus. (This list is full, so I can't add any more books. Some issues came up midway through, and I neglected it for several years, so I've started a new list.)
Completed Books Only
A mixed bag. I care about the plot, but also the characters. I'm not particularly fond of morally perfect male leads, though I'll read one if it's well written. I prefer stories without romance, but I'll also read a single-love-interest or harem story if it's good.
Infinite-Flow and Rational-Protagonist Stories
Mainly stories with sound logic, rational protagonists, and an infinite-loop setup.
Otherworlds, Transmigration, Gender-Bending, Main God, System

This is a mage, cold-blooded, focused, without the passion of knights and warriors, without the mercy of priests, without versatile skills, without eloquent communication. Everything revolves around his own requirements, ignoring people and things that have nothing to do with him, and focusing all his energy on improving himself. This is the essence of specialization, not relying on the legacy of his ancestors or relying on unfavorable luck to find his own path.
It's good-looking, really good-looking. Someone recommended it before, but I just watched it now... The protagonist is really dark, it's great, it's very good. It's really rare for it to be so dark at the beginning... I love it!
Blue hair, blue eyes, elf ears, nothing wrong with it, eh
Question: Are reason and profit supremacy the same thing? I think reason is a world view, and the supremacy of interests is a value. The author uses the supremacy of interests to show the rationality of the mage. I don't understand this, and it is not very comfortable to read.
After reading this book, I can't stand other dark novels at all. I searched several times but couldn't find anything I wanted. I ask you comrades to recommend some books.
The protagonist is a decent villain, but his outlook is a bit crooked, but it's okay in the dark world. The protagonist kills his sister and proves it. He has purely self-interested ideas and is cruel and ruthless. He plays a good trick. The protagonist and supporting actors are both online. The various conspiracies are very exciting to watch. The author also makes the combat part vivid and interesting, as exciting as watching an action movie. This article is good for those who like the dark flow, but book friends who have a positive or even neutral outlook may find some parts difficult to accept. For a neutral person like me, I feel that the copy of Black Dragon Kingdom is a bit too much, but it may be because I like the kind and great black dragon too much, right? Others are OK.
I'm very surprised about the scale of the starting point.
This kind of selfish and distorted book with three views can exist, but there is this magical rule that cannot describe anything from the neck down. I am not criticizing anything, I am just curious. Its existence is reasonable, which shows that there are such people and three views in our current society. . Anyway, I feel frustrated. Again, I'm not criticizing this book, I'm just surprised that so-called dark literature can exist.
I want to know how many chapters of this book are good
I really want to know how many chapters of this book will be good. I came here because of the reputation. I heard that this book is very good, but I read dozens of chapters. I am very disappointed. Personally, I feel that the protagonist is not the dark stream, but a simple pervert. When there are two branches and the result is unknown, the protagonist will 100% choose the dark branch. For example, the female priest before, did not understand why she was killed. First, she said she was afraid that the female priest would destroy the equipment, and then after she killed the female priest, she felt that it was dangerous to kill the skeletons, and even the equipment was exploded? So what is the point of killing the female priest? He made himself an enemy for no reason. What if this female priest had some background? It is completely inconsistent with the rigor of a mage, and he killed the female priest for fear of being discovered, and then deliberately tricked the female priest to death, but the female priest was just a level 3 scumbag! I remember that the protagonist reached level 4 in a week. This priest is a garbage spot. It only takes a month to reach level 3? The church launched a prophecy for this kind of scum? If there is someone behind the prophecy, I don't think it can be prevented. After all, just watching someone die, there must be something like aura. Even if you skip the part about killing the priest and just complain about this mission, let's not talk about the author's cheating math skills, just check the two basketball courts! I thought it had to be the kind of expedition into the jungle for a week, but it turned out that it was as big as two basketball courts? The land I have downstairs is bigger than this. Wouldn't it be enough for an ordinary person to take a look at it? Let's make another complaint about the barbecue restaurant owner. First of all, was the protagonist's spell on his clothes swallowed by a loli? Let's not talk about the plot where Loli makes a magician. Think that kid is stupid, but the boss is obviously afraid of the protagonist, and then calls the protagonist brother? Do you know how serious the sense of disobedience is? It's just like you are an ordinary person with no special skills, and there is a super dangerous black boss. You are not willing to let your relatives get close to him, and then calling him brother is ridiculous and inconsistent. And this is more extreme than the example I gave, because the protagonist can theoretically kill all the ordinary people in the world without getting hurt. How can such a dangerous person be called a brother? There is also the part of the war, first of all the princess, I will not mention the setting of the silly princess, just treat the princess as innocent, but later tell me that there are two to three hundred professionals? I remember one in 100,000 people, right? Including those who went to big cities to study and those who died in the wild, there must be at least 30 million people in this city. There are so many people! Then there is the strange reward method. Is the protagonist invincible? And kill fifty professionals? You have to know that there are a total of two to three hundred professionals here, and there can't be many more on the opposite side, right? Otherwise, there is no way to fight, let's count 300 people. Why does the protagonist think that he can kill one-sixth of the professionals on the opposite side by himself? Long Aotian? Even if the protagonist is Long Aotian, are so many "calm" mages all Long Aotian? Long Aotian is not so proud, right? Shouldn't it be said how much reward is given for each person killed? Is everyone sure to kill one-sixth of the opposing professionals? Then there is the war scene that follows. How different are warriors and mages? I feel like the protagonist killed a warrior with basically no damage. The key is, doesn't the mage consume mana? If the warrior has no magic, is there still a mage? This is the first time I have seen warriors consume mana faster than mages, and mages also cast a large-area damage spell before, so are mages and warriors so different? And the one who ate on a corpse was really awesome. It was the first time I saw someone taking the initiative to eat on a corpse. The key was that there was a table to use! This is quite a perversion! And the subsequent teenage trainee, I remember the protagonist shocked the old man at level 4. This trainee is such a big shot, and he still lives like this? No, I remember that the author seemed to have written something like "the early stage upgrade is very fast", and the protagonist reached level 4 in a few days, and so did the knight, so that old man who is stuck at level 1? Born mentally retarded? In addition, there are a lot of problems, such as the apprentice casually throwing a fireball of 7,000 degrees, spending a lot of magic power to recover, upgrading is the same as playing, so I am too lazy to complain about them one by one. I just want to ask where this book is not poisonous (Don't use your dislike to talk to me, I did not directly scold the author, nor did I criticize the book without thinking, I just said that the plot is unreasonable)
Is this book really dark? I just feel that it is very stereotyped. It is so stereotyped that the protagonist of the dark stream can only be spooky and dark. Decent must be bright, and the protagonist's IQ is not enough. The protagonist will pretend to be a good person in the end so that he can stab others in the back. But you don't even change your appearance, don't say that you should correct the light as proof, at least change your aura. You have to scare people with your blue eyes, and you still wonder if he is afraid of you?
It's like it's stuck in the throat, and you can't spit it out quickly.
I don't know why this book was recommended to me, probably because I also prefer reading Western fantasy novels based on DND. 2.9 Million words, the author must have put a lot of effort into it. After reading dozens of chapters, it really didn't suit my taste. I originally planned to abandon it. I always felt it was a bit weird, so I couldn't help but say a few words... As an old bookworm who has been into this book since 2004, I think I have read all the books. There are a lot of books of all kinds, including cool writings by beginners, works by great masters, and even poisonous writings... Most of the time, I treat them indifferently, but to be honest, after reading this book, I still feel very awkward. It can be said that this is the most popular book I have ever read, except for the banned Rabbit Tail. This is an uncomfortable book... For the reason that many readers have probably mentioned. The protagonist of this book can be said to be a typical extreme refined egoist. It would be an exaggeration to say that it is inhumane to say that it is extreme... For today's readers, especially the younger ones who are a little rebellious Sexually speaking, Madonna-like pig's feet have long been despised, and dark protagonists are more popular. There are many novels with such dark protagonists that are very popular. It's not a big deal at all. It's understandable that if you get tired of the daily exquisite pastries, fish and meat, you will like to eat stinky tofu or something. But why does this book make people feel particularly uncomfortable? I read it carefully and found that one of the characteristics of this book is that certain characters are deliberately exaggerated and described, and when people think they are beautiful, they are suddenly destroyed... Readers have reported that this contrast is always present throughout the text... And some principles and viewpoints of the weak and the strong are repeatedly emphasized... As the saying goes, people are like their writing, but the author insists on portraying the pig's feet in such a cold, selfish and cold-blooded way. Does he really think that human nature is so dark? As some readers said, even if the author's writing style is not at the level of a master, he still has some writing skills. The setting of the world background is also grand, and the investment of 290 words is also a waste of effort. If the pig's feet were not set in this way, it should be more popular... Some readers even said, you can not be a saint, but please respect those who are really willing to pay for others... Let me say, even if When depicting the darkness of pig's feet, one must remember that going too far is not enough... In real life, there must be such egoists around, but where there is darkness, there must be light. Every progress of mankind does not rely on such people, but precisely on the glorious Virgin side of human nature... Even in the novel, as a reader said, Netheril relies on people like pig's feet, and it is unreasonable not to perish! I judge that the author is not very old. Human nature is not simply black or white. When you see the black side, please remember the white side of human nature. There may be many fans of the author who think that I am here to maliciously attack the author. I guess there are many old bookworms who have read the book for a while and then abandoned it, but they came and left in silence. I have expressed my opinions and suggestions. I hope the author understands that good medicine tastes bitter but good advice is harsh to the ears... If you have always been addicted to those books that tell you, I like to see you become stronger and act unscrupulously. Bullying the weak and naive fans, you will never become everyone... I think the monthly ticket is 56, and there are some tweets to tell you how unpopular the pig's feet in your books are with mainstream bookworms. Please remember that it is not your book, but your pig's feet. It is recommended to read The Deadly Destined, Starting with Guhuo Bird, and The Overlord Who Is Afraid of Water with Grenades. The pig's feet portrayed by the master are not virgins, but they are never shameless.
