Where Can I Find Fun Novels?
I'll keep working to collect interesting books! These are all books I thought were pretty good. I won't be adding reviews.
The Fantasy Book Nook: Let Your Imagination Run Wild and Beat the Reading Slump (Mostly New Series)
I've always loved fantasy novels. They can have wonderfully imaginative premises while still being grounded in reasonably coherent worldbuilding. Over time, fantasy has expanded beyond traditional Western fantasy to include all sorts of fresh elements. This list is mainly a collection of fantasy novels I personally enjoy, including classics worth rereading and recent hidden gems. I like novels with sound logic, intelligent characters, and satisfying stories. Feel free to recommend books and help
Hard Science Fiction and Top-Tier Infinite-World Novels
Science fiction. I only collect stories without flaws in their worldbuilding, and I reject cold-blooded, antisocial protagonists.
Who Says Niche Fiction Can't Have Its Day?
As a longtime web-novel reader, I'm especially fond of sci-fi set in technological apocalypses and horror. But let's be honest: even with Qidian's enormous catalogue and countless so-called top authors, there are very few books I truly like. Stories like Su Mali's are everywhere: protagonists surrounded by hordes of lackeys and women, while the villains have the intelligence of a rock. What's the point of a book whose ending you can guess after ten chapters? It's just wish fulfillment. But reall
Not Mindless
More or less one book from each genre.

The author seems to be willing to accept suggestions humbly and write the book seriously. As an old bookworm, he also took the time to patiently give suggestions 🪖 After casual reading, the author is good, but he clearly spent his energy in the wrong place. The writing style is too showy, and the overall situation is too unreal and too flamboyant. Coupled with the relatively chaotic world setting, people have little expectation for the development of the plot 😥 As for the issue of whether it's fun to abuse the master after reading the comments (I only read the first few chapters, so I don't know what happens next), I don't think it's the key. Many people read the master abuse stories like "Extraordinary Noble" and "Kingdom Bloodline" with gusto (including me 🤭). I think the most important key is to have something interesting overall that makes people motivated to read and can naturally attract readers. To achieve this, the world setting, character creation, and plot development are the most important, and the writing style is secondary. The author invests a lot of energy in this aspect, and the energy investment in other aspects will naturally decrease, and to be honest, this kind of writing style will still deduct points for the novel (it seems that a small number of readers have unique tastes and like this very much 🤤) It feels like it's rare for someone like Tomato to use simple writing to express what he thinks well.
When I saw the introduction, I wanted to say, is there a 41st millennium...
Watching this should be partly Bloodborne and Dark Souls fans, partly Kesou fans, and the rest should be some literary and rigorous people who love various settings. This kind of subject matter is actually not easy to write online novels. If the author pursues those novel masters, the author should change the subject matter as soon as possible. After all, this kind of subject is considered a niche, but I hope the author can continue to write it.
Is the protagonist a person who didn't exist in the first place? I don't know what is put into the body of Usserys, a bit like the incarnation of Yogurt?
Author, do you know that your book has been printed and distributed? It is a big book with very small fonts and very thick text. My high school classmate tore up the book and gave it to me to read. I originally wanted to ease my mood but showed a depressing batch to me. I still remember it to this day. I really don't understand why pirates would print your book
Comrade author, I like your work very much. The world view of Dark Souls: Fire Passion + Cthulhu + Bloodborne is perfectly integrated. But your book is not just for money. According to the general formula, it has not been fun, slapped in the face, or pretentious until now. Although the foreshadowing of the explosion was laid in the early stage. Both parents died, there was a sister, and there was a big secret in the body. But generally speaking, every 20,000 words should give the protagonist an explosive conflict to improve the protagonist's character. Just like the early stage of "The Devil of the Way" written by Comrade Go Away, the whole world view is also very depressing, but through the protagonist's crushing of monsters, it comes out in a flash. Although you said in the first few chapters that the subscription was poor, you have no problem with your writing style. It's just that the plot structure is not marketable enough. I won't give you suggestions here. I can only hope that more and more people will discover your book, which is really good. Finally, sometimes it is necessary to reveal the secrets of fire and the Code of Hammurabi to let readers know that the protagonist must be awesome in the future in order to attract a large enough readership.
The "Soul of Burning Steel" next door has beaten out the Chaos God's daddy╮(╯▽╰)╭ You can't do this!
There are both middle two and literary youth, and the main plot is there. Although it revolves around the protagonist, it gives the impression that the protagonist basically relies on talent to survive, and then calls people. You clearly stated the talents of others. The protagonist... Is written in such a way that I can't understand it. It's also like the guy below who talks about regret medicine, and he seems to be able to foresee the future. Then several plots unfolded, which was a bit much. How should I put it? The writing is very good and the writing style is good (somewhat verbose), but there is no need to write it like a classic Western fantasy novel. The market for literary youth and middle-2 students is not very big, and I personally think that literary youth is a disease. For example, the protagonist is always thinking about something, and the conversation with Lolita is unfolding in various ways. This is an online novel after all, and it is best to give people the impression that the protagonist is a combination of knowledge and action, with a moderate personality and quick practicality. When I saw the chapters on the shelf, everything the protagonist did was driven by invisible forces (yes, that is you), and he was passive throughout the whole process. I want to be a strong person, and then I will get into all kinds of trouble. I didn't read the rest of it, but judging from this trajectory, I guess I'm still passive throughout. After all, the author emphasized fate, and the so-called becoming a strong man only relies on talent, or swordsmanship relies on souls that have traveled through the past, or something else. If that were the case, it would be boring. The most boring thing about the novel is that it emphasizes fate, and then always follows fate, and then, fate is fate. . . . A little superficial opinion.
Is the author still alive? I'm lucky enough to have read your book. I'm really excited about it.
As far as I personally feel, the protagonist's Glory One ability is the real version of the regret medicine!
