StarveCleric Is The Sacred Ruins good?

Tugster
I haven't read it, but I'd think that it should be rather good (putting aside genre preferences and stuff)
It has been on the top of the Chinese monthly recommendation board and monthly ticket for almost the entire 2017. (Usually there would quite a few fluctuations, such as A Will Eternal alternating from 2nd to 9th place, but The Sacred Ruins managed to remain at the top consecutively for many months)
Soooo I guess trust the taste of the majority? :P

StarveCleric It remained the top for 10 months straight before Seeking the Flying Sword Path by IET took the last two months.

CKtalon But both of these books seems to have low rankings here. I used to read IETs new book which u r translating, but ordinary beginning made me stop reading that for a while. Need to catch up. How is the story now? Anything new and good?

KingBiBiK New readers do not know who are the popular writers in China after all. And popular writers tend to write a little more mature-sounding stuff, so it might not suit their tastes. I do not know how it compares with IET's older works so no comment.

because the author have gained too many fans.the fans always vote without any reason.
the author of sacred ruins haven't make any progress for many years,but his books still contain many joyful and exciting elements,tell a interesting story as well.

just read until 500 chapters for the author sometimes kind of drag and filled with nonsense words which i hate most and the beginning is boring as usual .

StarveCleric I guess it is because the Author of The Sacred Ruins must be quite popular in China whereas here the translation rate isn't the best which may put off many people.

tragic, in here people rather rooting for lohp rather than sacred ruins

lazyDaoist People like face-smacking what can I say.

Most of them are popular authors who have already gained a huge fans base from their previous books. Except for a few such as RtW and GFS which are new

SRandom yes u received right what will happen if my book ever comes out !
We also need new writer's story to be supported
After all we can't really judge a book by it's cover
So new or not fair chance is upto chances too !

gorky

You can't judge a book by it's cover, but you can judge it by it`s author. If your fav author writes a new book, pretty sure you would give it a chance. That said, there is definitely room for new authors.

So the Chinese one is :
1) The Sacred Ruins
2) A Will Eternal
3) Immortal Mortal
4) Library of Heaven's Path
5) Cultivation Chat Group
6) Battle Frenzy
7) My 1979 (It's a book in the 'city' genre regarding a man going back to the 1979, when he was 18)
8) Gourmet Food Supplier
9) Rebirth — City Cultivation
10) Release the Witch

And the International one is : (Based on Power Ranking)
1. Shadow Hack
2. Library of Heaven's Path
3. Release That Witch
4. Night Ranger
5. I'm Really A Superstar
6. Monster Paradise
7. Immortal Mortal
8. Swallowed Star
9. True Martial World
10. Cultivation Chat Group

Both has very different taste indeed...

Also release rate plays a huge factor

And translation quality. And some novels just don't translate as well no matter how good the translator is.
