This is a personal list, powered by love, featuring new releases and ongoing novels. Completed novels will be removed after a while. Please follow and save the list. Lately I've been seeing more fantasy stories about dragons, and finding more interesting books. There have also been more COC steampunk novels lately. I only just noticed that a lot of veteran authors have launched new books. I'm still searching for stories I like. The quality of new releases in Qidian's historical fiction section k

Works I've read and really enjoyed. I hope we can share these unusual stories and discuss the questions they raise. I won't give specific ratings, since different readers will reach different conclusions. It's better to see for yourself than to rely on what others say. I'll add recommended books if I've read them and think they're good. If a book isn't on the list, it just doesn't suit my current tastes. For now, the list is mostly historical and xianxia web novels, with a few science fiction, w

I stumbled upon this book and read a couple of chapters. That familiar style, that familiar pretentious air, reminded me of *The Tang Dynasty in My Fantasy*, which I read 20 years ago—my lost youth. Then I checked the author's name, and sure enough, it was this guy. His writing style has three characteristics: understated pretentiousness, meticulous research, and convoluted vocabulary.
I feel it's necessary to express my opinion here. #CatTired#, I think your use of colons is problematic. For example, in "XX said:", what follows the colon must be what XX said. However, if the previous paragraph is what XX said, then a colon cannot be used after "XX said"; a period is generally used instead. The screenshot is an example.
It's written alright. Could you please write the sentences more fluently? It's really uncomfortable for me to read. And could you please write this system in a clearer way? It's making me really confused.
Looking back now, this novel has the feel of a TV series or movie (not one of those trashy TV series or movies of recent years), and so far, both the plot and the characters are logically sound and intellectually stimulating.
I just want to save more books to read later. But I have to keep reading new books to qualify for recommendations, which is so annoying!
The biggest problem I've encountered so far is the lack of a truly formidable foe to challenge the protagonist, and the protagonist's abilities are rather vague.
Seven million people in Taiwan is too many. In this world, when it was ceded to Japan at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were less than three million people. How did you come up with the idea of seven million people at the end of the Tang Dynasty?
The beginning was very well written, but I don't know why they had to randomly jump off the main plot and introduce a side story. It seriously affects the reading experience and creates a strong sense of disconnect. It's similar to another book, "The Great Player of the Demonic Sect," where things felt a bit more cohesive towards the end.
The order of the Cat Skin Books: First was *The Illusory Tang Dynasty*, The Transmigrator Travels Through Time, The Remnants of the Tang Dynasty*, and finally this one.
I've been a long-time reader of the author since "The Illusory Tang Dynasty." I always thought that was the book I'd never read in my lifetime, but I never imagined they'd write several more!
