If that’s why you’re here, you may as well move along. There are books by big-name authors here, of course, but also books that could be called masterpieces. Everyone defines that differently, because we’re all individuals. This list holds so many of my

I couldn't read any more after chapter 34. The Yang family has abused you a thousand times, yet you treat them like your first love? You have money, powerful connections, your master is Zhang Xutuo, and you're Yang Jian's savior, yet you stubbornly cling to Yang Su's house, begging to be abused while acting all loyal. The author really wrote the wrong era; you shouldn't have written it in the Sui Dynasty, writing it in the Qing Dynasty would have been so much better—just a lackey!
Good books
I'm getting tired of stories about warlords vying for power.
The issue of values is an old one, and Yang Yuanqing's betrayal of Yang Guang is completely unconvincing from a moral and logical standpoint. According to the author's description, Yang Jian and his son, Yang Guang and his son, and Yang Guang and his sister all showed Yang Yuanqing great kindness and favor, yet how did Yang Yuanqing repay the Sui Dynasty? With such cold-heartedness, what was the point of leading troops and establishing his own independent regime?
I couldn't stand it anymore. He repaid evil with kindness for those who bullied him, and even his wicked stepmother helped take care of him for the rest of his life. Why didn't the protagonist travel back to the Qing Dynasty and become a servant?
People who study history need evidence and materials, but some online writers these days can turn history upside down with just a few words, fooling themselves and others. They're really something else.
This is the only historical novel I've ever read that I'd want to read multiple times. I absolutely love it; it's wonderfully written.
Gao Yue's style is about the struggle for supremacy among powerful figures. Based on this, there are subtle variations in different works, but ultimately it is still about the struggle for supremacy among powerful figures, so it is normal for some readers to disagree. For an emperor, not having many heirs is a major taboo. How did the Later Zhou Dynasty fall?
The biggest flaw in "The Great Hero" is that just as the chaotic era ends and preparations are made to reform the rules, this is glossed over, leaving the story feeling empty.
All I can say about this book is that you'll regret it if you don't read it.
I don't really like time-travel novels set in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties.
Because most time travelers are ordinary people, if they really take things seriously and apply logic, they'll realize that war is not child's play. Ignoring the enemy's learning ability and downplaying heroes like Li Shimin is simply naive. Objectively speaking, time travelers could hardly achieve what Li Shimin accomplished.
