A Tiny Little Reading List
Mainly recommending fantasy. Every day I read some books recommended by editors, and... They're all fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. The question is whether I can fatten them up first. I added The Witch because, come on, you know why it's the banner image... If you're a new author who wants your book recommended, leave a comment. I'll read it carefully and add it right away if it's worth including. If it goes more than three days without an update, I'll remove it immediately. One more thing:
Focused on History and Urban Fiction
I prefer urban and historical fiction. At a minimum, the plot should make sense, the logic should hold up, and the main and supporting characters should have their heads on straight. A witty writing style is a plus, of course.
Plot + Prose + Smart Characters + One Heroine = A Must-Read
I've been reading for eight years. I used to waste quite a lot of time when I couldn't control myself, but now I don't follow just any book. I only slowly follow books with good writing and sensible characters. Also, I prefer a single female lead or no female lead at all.

I am currently writing a dialogue novel "The Door of Sanctuary". Welcome to read it.
Recently I had an idea and wrote a dialogue novel "The Door of Sanctuary". Sci-fi theme. After the nuclear war, groups of survivors came to the door of a private shelter. Who can enter and who can only leave? What's behind the door? . Friends who are interested can take a look, and if you like it, please click and compare. Find it at the bottom of the home page of the Qidian APP - the third dialogue novel above - search for "Door of Sanctuary". Or open this link: https://chat. Qidian. Com/book/11844432403727803
This book has been completed, and the new book "Sun Eater" has been opened. Everyone is welcome to read it.
"Sun Eater" is a science fiction novel. Introduction: The sun suddenly aged tens of millions of times and soon entered the red giant era. The earth was engulfed by the sun, and humans had to retreat to the outer reaches of the solar system. Scientists are exploring the cause of the disaster and calculating the remaining days of the solar system. However, this is not what Ye Yang cares about. He is wearing a worn-out space suit and standing on a big rock in the asteroid belt, caring about several other things: Who am I? Where do I come from? Why the hell am I standing here?
A little opinion
It is my first time to come across the work of group portraits. I have read one hundred and ten chapters after it was published. Regarding the low popularity of this book, I have an immature idea that I would like to share with the author. I personally feel that the writing level of this book is still very high, the writing style is very good, the characterization is very vivid, the logic is very thorough, and the story is very emotional. But the biggest problem is that they are too "ordinary". The main characters in the novel are very consistent with ordinary people in reality. No one has a strong heart, keen insight, meticulous thinking and intelligent mind. These characters always have various troubles in the story, there are always many setbacks, and they always need a little luck to complete their goals. If it is a short story or a novella, this is no problem at all. It can fully mobilize the audience's emotions, and the audience can always maintain full emotions to read the novel, and finally obtain some kind of spiritual satisfaction. But as a very long online article, if you are always stuck in such a low mood, not many people can persist, unless that person is good at it. This is why a work that is relatively more than most online articles has only a small number of loyal fans. Why do most people feel awkward when they read it? It's because the main characters in the works are always unable to control their own destiny. When faced with the problem of survival at the beginning, the collective can certainly help everyone overcome the difficulties, but after survival, don't these people have their own ideas to pursue? Don't you control your own destiny? Especially the main characters with power seem to be chess pieces without goals. All the goals are arranged for them by the author, a character who should not exist. As a villain, Zhang Hong has so many ideas of his own, and since the decent characters have the possibility of learning magic and fighting spirit, wouldn't they be eager to improve their power? And as a person who has mastered power, he is always unable to use power to solve problems. The power system is too vague and does not achieve the desired effect. In some places, it is even contradictory. The power of mages is not worthy of the status they have obtained. The article explains everywhere that this is a world where power is paramount. If mages cannot overwhelmingly defeat warriors with similar levels, then how can they gain the respect of others? The warriors on Xiao Chen's side always inexplicably respect a mage because of his title, but the villains who are opponents do not care about this title at all. It seems that the righteous and villains are not from the same world at all. This creates a serious perception problem. Forcing an ordinary person to lead a group of people against opponents he cannot control is very real, but too ordinary. Even if he wins in the end, he always has to rely on a little luck and a breakthrough? Even winning is nothing to be happy about. To sum up, in plain language, I am unhappy, not happy at all. The overall mood of this book is too sad. When writing a very long novel, the most intense emotions cannot only be negative ones. One hundred chapters in, there must always be intense positive emotional feedback so that readers can persevere. In the words of Internet writers, it feels better! It doesn't mean that you have to be happy all the time, but you can't be unhappy all the time. Who can persevere in this?
Personal nagging, don't comment if you don't like it I just started reading Chapter 40 or 50, and found a pretty big omission, which I think is the source of the sense of dissonance. Simply put, it is unorganized, undisciplined, and purposeless. There is no cohesion in a group with more than a hundred people in the early stage of writing. At the beginning of the disaster relief, the natives from another world were besieging them. It was understandable that time was tight, but by more than 40 chapters, the protagonists had gone out to explore the world, and the school had not gathered everyone for a meeting, or in other words, there was no common program and purpose. Although the article mentioned that the principal holds meetings every day, the group meeting is something that needs to be highlighted. This is not seven people, but more than 700 people. If you want to be a leader, you must take responsibility and establish direction. The second is a kind of looseness and relaxation. Li Jia, Ji Yijun, Luo Ling, everyone has their own thoughts and pursuits. This highlights the group portrait, but conflicts with the seriousness of the crisis created at the beginning. How strong does one's spirit have to be to put the importance of other things above safety in such a sudden and dramatic change? In such an unknown world with magic and fantasy creatures, it is really weird to be able to run around so carelessly, contact strangers at will, without caring about the safety of yourself and the people in the school. However, this may also be the original intention of the author, to teach time travelers a big lesson. Just read the comments about the treatment after the invasion of horse thieves,,, Group travel stories with more than a hundred people will emphasize the power of the group and use them to farm and climb technology (Lingao), while group travel stories with only a few dozen people will focus on exploring the world and not emphasize cohesion (mang travel). Nowadays, there are over a hundred group costumes, retaining hundreds of people from the army and university leaders. However, the team is unstable at the beginning, emphasizing each person's personality, which is a bit inconsistent. It is better to have fewer costumes and write it directly as a fantasy world adventure. All in all, these are only the first one-twentieth of the book, and they are definitely biased. However, I always felt worried when reading the book. The time-travelers lacked a sense of awe for this strange world. This reminded me of a sentence from Three-Body Problem: "Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is." I look forward to what kind of crises and unacceptable losses they will encounter, and their transformation after experiencing wind and rain. If you feel inspired after reading it, I will come back to write a book review.
The introduction says: The cage of science and the paradise of magic? What misunderstanding does the author have about science?
Magic is universal and regular. That is science. If the conditions are met, the results can be achieved. This is part of science. Magic is also a kind of energy, and its properties change is nothing more than transformation, decay, splitting, and fusion. Finding the laws is science.
Does it feel like publishing a book? I read the previous point, and then realized that the total number of words is so many, and how long it will take to write. I've watched about 4% of the movie, but I don't really want to watch it. I feel like there won't be much to look forward to later on. The reason is mainly because it doesn't look good. Although it depicts multiple lines, it doesn't write one line well. What does it mean to write a line well? What makes readers immersed in it is that I don't have it. There are actually a lot of good performances in a few lines, such as the relationship where the heroine hides something from the hero and the hero is angry. I really resonated with it. But it is not enough for a story to have good points. It also needs a clear direction of development, with some clues that hint at the follow-up, and give people imagination and expectations for follow-up development, so as to continuously arouse the curiosity of readers. The author did not indicate the male protagonist's thoughts about his future life, nor did he give any clues about the future. Therefore, I lacked a sense of expectation when I read the story again. If the story does not have a particularly big emotional ups and downs, and there are still things I don't like or can't understand from time to time (such as burning down the library), after the initial expectations generated by various reasons (such as curiosity about the worldview) are exhausted, naturally I don't want to read it anymore. There is also a scene where a female spy uses xx to sneak into and burn the library (I don't remember the man's name). This unpleasant plot feels to me like a disgusting plot where the main plot suddenly changes to another line and a new plot jumps out in the middle of the main plot. In short, I suggest that the author just write one line. In my opinion, with the author's level, the writing can be wonderful, organized and attractive to readers. I think the rhythm of this multiple lines is a bit messy (face covering). When reading, it feels that the plot development is not clear enough, and there are many things that are not understandable. In fact, I only have a superficial understanding of writing and can only provide some suggestions.
It was really well written, and I felt like I was witnessing the rise of a great god. However, this book has not yet gained the popularity that matches its writing style and story. Many people at Qidian have been spoiled by YY writing. Some people can't accept even a small setback like burning down the library. The most attractive thing about this book is that it is real. Everyone's reactions after time travel are reasonable, and the actions of each character are also logical. The reflection on the conflict between different civilizations is the finishing touch. At the same time, the plot is also very attractive and full of suspense. Moreover, each character has its own characteristics and is memorable. Although it is not as good as a famous book like Water Margin, it is not easy to do this. The author's story-telling ability is really good. I have just finished the first volume. If the story behind it is not broken, it will definitely be a masterpiece. Even if it doesn't become popular in the end, it can become a word-of-mouth masterpiece like Book of the Dead and accumulate a group of loyal fans for the author. I am very optimistic about the author's development.
At the beginning of the novel, more than 700 people went to another world to form a group. There were no rules at all, resulting in no reward for merit and no punishment for mistakes. A fool who hired people to beat his colleagues, which led to the group being invaded by thousands of thieves, was not punished at all. The cost of making mistakes was zero. How can such a group be cohesive? Maybe in the beginning, everyone was unfamiliar with the different world and couldn't help it, so they stayed together. But later on, the problem will become more and more serious. Either they will split or the group will break up. It is not as cohesive as the ancient tribe.
After reading about 79 chapters, I felt like I was watching Peppa Pig and Team Paw achieve great things. If you look at it carefully, it's quite attractive, but it's fake and awkward to watch.
Great writing, full subscription support. I also voted for the monthly vote. The multi-perspective narrative feels good, the group crossing is also handled well, and the clues are very skillful. It can't be seen that it is a new author. The best thing is that the plot is not cliche. None of the protagonists are proud www Yu Yanshu once drew a cartoon about two narrative methods. One is to draw a complex maze, with the author's hand pushing an ordinary ball through the maze. The other is to draw an ordinary maze and let a cute hamster go through the maze by itself. Not to mention the tendency of the comics themselves, judging from the comments on the comics, there are people who support both narrative methods, and there is no particular advantage or disadvantage. I think Seven Towers is more inclined to the first type. The setting of the world is the most detailed I have ever seen. The characters' biographies, physiological structures, social organization methods, etc. Are all extremely detailed and very interesting to watch. The plot itself is also very twists and turns, and from time to time the situation is at the end of the road. In comparison, the characters are much thinner. The plots are almost all to promote the plot. There are few plots to express the characters' personalities. The ones that are there are basically to express the Virgin... Good guys are good guys and bad guys are bad guys. It is as simple as a fairy tale. In addition, the bad guy's IQ is slightly lower. At least the first four volumes do not feel confrontational enough. The protagonist feels like he just keeps playing and opening treasure chests without encountering too many setbacks. The protagonist has made exhaustive plans, can implement every plan, and successfully achieve the goal... Is it a bit too smooth? (Nick-picking) In addition, the value part of the river crab is a bit out of place, probably because the few books I have read recently are all the same (The Witch, Sword of the Dawn, etc.) And I am a bit tired of aesthetics... Keep up the good work, author~ I hope the writing gets better and better. Looking forward to the exciting follow-up.
