Anyone here following, and hooked on, any novels?
Pic related is what i'm reading currently. I'm slowly writing up glossaries as i read stuff.
I Shall Seal The Heavens is probably my most favorite one in the list.
If anyone is curious and has any questions about the titles in the list, just lay them out.
you'd probably have more luck discussing this sort of stuff on /jp/ or /a/

/a/ is only for manga and anime, and /jp/ doesn't deal in English translated literature [especially non-Japanese] because they are "too good" for English translation.
Thus, i am here.

its just a bit better since most of the chars and stories have been drilled in since childhood and permeates the culture with references everywhere

After Liu Xuandu is more developed along with those in his faction become prevelant, the book get's way more comprehensive. I stopped reading relativly early, but I binged it after It became interesting.
Trying to find an ebook of Outlaws of the Marsh, not having any luck. I currently have Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Drama of the Red Chamber
Has anyone here read Naoya Shiga?
He is in the same position of a lot of Japanese modern writers. He has had a lot of his short stories translated, but none of his longer works.
I really like The Rapeseed Flower, The Paper Door and At Kinosaki.

Dark Night's Passing has a translation. Who else are you thinking of that doesn't have their longer works translated?
>>7408645

HOLY SHIT, best MC in novels ever. It's rare that MCs have the balls to completely destroy themselves with the intent of taking all their foes with them in a bloodbath in maniacal rage.
