Yinglong's Dark Library Is Open
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
A Sort of Reading Guide? I'll Review All Kinds of Texts, Good and Bad
I add strange and unusual books I come across here. (I can only make one list, so my personal recommendations are here too.) P.S. If I sound harsh, it’s because something about the book genuinely disgusted me. P.P.S. One extremely harmful book was taken down the other day, after being on this list for a while. No idea if someone reported it or the author ran off, but either way, good riddance.
I Love Reading

Only Worth Reading If It Has Something Fresh, No Clichés
I've read so many books that I can usually predict what comes next as soon as I spot the formula. These days it's one overused trope after another. Either it's one fight after another, until reading becomes exhausting. Or the story plunges into one long dungeon arc. It's convenient for the author, but it really insults the reader's intelligence. Or the author thinks they're clever and that their comedy is hilarious, when in reality it's just... painfully bad. Personally, I think a good author s

A collection of top-notch fantasy novels, carefully recommended by a seasoned reader. Whether they're classics from years past or wildly imaginative, unconventional stories with original ideas, I'll seek them out and read them. Good books are plentiful, but readers who can recognize them are rare. In this information age, even a fine wine can be lost in a deep alley, so we shouldn't let excellent novels go undiscovered.

It has been emphasized that the protagonist has been "mentally retarded" for more than ten years and is over 40 years old, which does not give readers any sense of empathy. I just feel that these "labels" are not pleasing. In addition, the nonsense about the protagonist's aristocratic family does not reflect how detached the protagonist is, and the allusions to "eldest brother", "mother" and "liar", or the output of personal values, also make people feel quite greasy. Obviously the writing is great, but when used in the scenes mentioned above, it is quite frustrating.
Is the protagonist actually a psychopath?
In his own territory, he directly executed the people in his territory because of their cowardice and incompetence. Outside, he faced off against the gods in order to save a little girl. The Mage Association in their base camp had their apprentices cut off their heads because they were blocking the way, and they worked as nannies for two selfish giant babies at the Magic Temple outside. There is also the latest chapter of the time traveler plot. I really don't understand the protagonist's motivation to work as a nanny in the time traveler base camp. What are you trying to do? Can these high school teachers and high school students help you? Or do you enjoy the feeling of being domineering in a different world and begging for mercy in front of your fellow villagers? The fellow said, "I hope you won't disappoint us" (Chapter 536). To put it bluntly, what qualifications do these time-travelers have to say this? Is zzzq in the brain or is it ptsd? Are you born a bitch? I lived a total of 14 years in my previous life. I was a patient with ALS for half of my life. The protagonist still wants to "go home". Brother, you have lived in a different world for more than forty years. You have parents and younger brothers who love you and are getting older, and you have a master who does his best for you. Which is your home? Are you thinking this way because your brain has been kicked? Does the author think that forcibly adding a main line of "going home" to the protagonist is particularly easy for readers to buy into it? You lived ten years ago, right? ? The protagonist I write is becoming more and more like a nc and a scumbag. Please don't disgust me, okay?
Some time ago, someone questioned whether the book "False Dragon Eternal Life" was written by AI? While I retorted, I also felt a little emotional: Times have changed. South is a writer familiar to many long-time fantasy readers. "Mage's Story", "Sword and Sorcery and Taxi", "Twenty-Sided Dice"... I started with DND themes, and then started to write my own stuff. "Hey, Human King" (homophone for Dwarf King), including the current book "Mage Story: Fake Dragon Eternal Life"... In fact, he has been writing, and he has even become more sophisticated, and his writing is more delicate and proficient. However, times have indeed changed. It makes no sense to say that he is like AI. The AI is almost like him. The style and taste of translation and detailed description are how Soth wrote his books twenty years ago, and he is even stronger now. His story is deeper and his techniques are less mainstream. It feels better if he doesn't do it. He just keeps telling stories, telling the story of a mage's pursuit of eternal life. There are not many people who write stories like this nowadays; there are almost only one person who can tell a solid fantasy, sword and magic, or DND flavor story. Look and cherish.
It's all God's perspective and useless descriptions
After writing for so many years, I still specialize in fantasy... As a result, there is no one that is out of the ordinary, and it can perfectly avoid all the cool points. It is also the only one.
You're such a thick-eyed guy, you're actually opening a new book behind your back!
It felt like it was very boring at 400 chapters. In fact, the best part was the adventure part before transforming into a dragon. It was boring after transforming into a dragon. This book is really not as good as the similar novel Stormwind. That book was close to 4 million words before it made me feel a bit bored.
Is the protagonist a double standard?
In Chestnut Tree Village, the protagonist killed the person who had accepted the gold coins but did nothing. Later, when there were rumors, he cut their tongues and whipped them, and then hanged the person who spread the rumors. To be honest, when I saw this, although I didn't teach him and called him cruel, that's how Internet literature is, and the protagonist can be considered "decided in killing". But it gets a little funny later. When the protagonist wanted to save the little aristocratic girl who was in a vegetative state, he thought the gods would kindly let her go. It felt funny at the time, and the character of the protagonist was a bit fragmented.
You may want to pay attention to it in the future. The dragon with pig's feet is stitched together, which may not please both sides. Readers of Western fantasy dragon fiction and readers of Eastern dragon fiction have different preferences. Your stitched monster may not please both sides.
There is nothing wrong with the writing style and plot logic of this book, but I just think this mage is too unmage-like.
The protagonist is a mage, maybe because of the author's detailed description, I don't think he is like a mage More like a warrior who uses a two-handed staff and knows a few magics The mage goes out bytaking a boat and walking The mage fights with two-handed staffs and some nodules with no special effects of unknown meaning, well, to make crabs delicious To eat in the wild, you need to cook them in pots and pans, uh, and make a fire. . . For such a mage, I always feel that he will be slapped to death by the giant dragon's paw. His strength is a bit ridiculous. This world with gods should theoretically belong to the world of high magic. A mage in a world of high magic relies entirely on his body to fight, and his legs and legs to travel. Take a boat, eat pots and pans outdoors Netheril's 11th-level senior mage (not to mention the 21st-level legendary mage who can destroy the country with a forbidden spell) can have his own mage tower. In aerial combat, one person can defeat a city. Isn't your mage a bit too weak?
