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

A Veteran Reader's List
This is my personal reading list, and as a longtime reader, I have some pretty strong preferences. I won't recommend genres I'm not fond of, and I can't recommend what I don't read. My opinions on some books may differ from yours, and that's perfectly normal. Some readers care about the details, while others don't, so something I see as a flaw may not matter to you. And something I see as a strength, or don't mind, may be a flaw in your eyes. Either way is possible. It's great if you find some

Thinking about the eccentric teammates in the old Taoist's book, it seems quite normal to add a dragon who can't afford the bride price, right? 🙂
Having read all the chapters so far, here are my personal thoughts.
Overall, the plot and pacing are good. The writing style isn't particularly profound, but it's above average and quite readable. If you ignore the only flaw, as someone with over thirty years of experience reading novels, I could keep reading. But the problem lies in this one flaw: the male lead.
From *The Secret of Radiation* to *Wasteland Rise*, *Dragon Slayer*, *Holy Knight*, and finally, *Boring*, I wanted to see a bloodbath. The author slowly turned over a new leaf; now, this book doesn't even have yellow packets (a euphemism for prostitution), and the protagonist isn't indulging in vengeance and wildly exciting lives anymore.
Can I still trust you, old man?
After Wasteland, you haven't finished a book properly. We who supported you with real money, it's not unreasonable for you to ask for a proper ending to a book, right?
All the books are the same old thing; only the first half is readable. If it's really unbearable, just go back to collecting trash.
It doesn't feel as exciting as my old books; it's too bland. The most interesting thing about the old books was about opening an instant noodle factory in modern society.
It feels like it's written very casually, the protagonist's strength and intelligence are inconsistent, but he can still win. The main theme is "I am the author, so whatever I write is reasonable" 😅😅.
Prayer for Ascension – Victor
"My Lord Victor!" "You are the ruler of the elves!... You are the guardian of Stromgarde!... You are the king of adventurers!..." "My Lord Victor!" "You are the protector of the elves!... You are the forerunner in the shadows!... You are the maintainer of order!..." "My Lord Victor!" "Your name will be sacred among the elves!... You led us through the crisis!...
Ten years ago you were an angry young man, now you're a laborer, just like your writing, getting worse and worse 😅
One question is, if a demigod like the Genie can travel through time and conjure Gatling guns, why is the angel next to the protagonist afraid of gunpowder guns?
