Title: 失落大陸|The Lost Continent| Si Luo Da Lu
Author: 多木木多|Duo Mu Mu Duo
Author Nationality and race: Chinese
Language: Chinese
Genre: Fiction
Length: novel
Subject: Fantasy
Summary: The heroine Yang Fan was transported to a wild continent, and tried to survive, adapt and build a life with an alien/reptile man: Nick.
Review: Transporting to outer world is a popular theme in fantasy, and human/other sentient species love is a recent Internet fad. This story stands out because of the extensive world building, and the brave heroine who's pragmatic and tries her best to survive and build a new life here. The alien/reptile men are treated as equal, with their distinct culture and biology.

Book 5
Title: 麒麟!Qi lin
Author: 桔子樹|Ji je Shu
Author Nationality and race: Chinese
Language: Chinese
Genre: Fiction
Length: novel
Subject: Military
Author Summary: They are ultimate weapons, the sharpest swords, iron and blood, killing, linger between life and death. They are the god of death, with blood stained hands. They walked between the living world and the world of death, with other people's lives in their hands. .
Despite these, kindness is the license of gods of death.
This's a story about war, a story of passion written with sweat and youth
Review: It's rare to find good modern military fiction. Qi Lun has a cast of colourful characters, realistic depiction of missions and training, and a sense of bitter humour. There's a M/M romance that develops naturally and believably but not the focus of the fic.
Warning: The fic contains forced drug addiction and withdrawal near the end.

Book 6
Title: 诺亚动物诊所病历记录簿（第一季）| Nuo Ya Dung Wu Zhen Suo Bing Li Ji Lu Bu (Di yi gui) | Noah Animal Clinic medical record
Author: live
Author Nationality and race: Chinese
Language: Chinese
Genre: Fiction
Length: novel
Subject: Fantasy
Summary: He is Nuo Zhai. He doesn't have unusual family background. He is just another overseas student who study hard to graduate and run an animal clinic in a European town...
After he signs a ten-year contract, he discovers that not only the position is bad, but it's near a large animal hospital. It's bad enough to have no human clients. Worst, all his client are inhuman and even monster...
Review: I love the humour, the play on mythology of multiple cultures, and the interaction between the protagonist with his hell hound. On the other hand, it may not be suitable for those taking mythology seriously. The extensive knowledge about being a vet is believable too.
