Creative Novels That Break the Mold (A Mixed Bag)

Every book on this list is one I’ve read or am currently following. There’s a wide variety of genres, often with books spanning more than one category: wuxia, xianxia, infinite-world fiction, tech-focused stories, original fiction, urban fiction, farming stories, Western fantasy, and gaming. None of these books rely on the same old formulas. Borrowing a template is unavoidable, but at the very least, they don’t just change the names and call it a day. You shouldn’t be able to guess what happens next from the opening. When I read long novels, by the time the plot starts tying things up in the middle or late stages, I often can’t remember who the characters are. That’s why I’m partial to medium-length novels. In my opinion, keeping a novel under two million characters is reasonable. Some books might not be to your taste simply because you don’t feel like looking for something different. I’m not saying every book here is amazing, but none of them will leave you feeling frustrated.

A Heng's Personal Recommendations

I've always believed in web novels. Dickens's popular fiction has become a literary monument, the Chinese novels of several centuries ago are now classics, and the miscellaneous works of Jin Yong and Gu Long have also earned classic status. I believe that, as web fiction continues to develop over the coming decades, its best works will one day be recognized as literature. With that in mind, I've selected a number of works that I believe may have literary value in the future. At the same time,
