I was feeling a bit bored and wanted to read some good books.
LOTM has ended while Reverend Insanity is also on its final stretch. So, I am running out of good books to read.

Recommend me books that conform to the following criteria:
1) Genre: Science Fiction/Fantasy/Magical Realism
2) No Cheat/System/Grandpa sealed in ring
3) A realistic portrayal of the world
3) Weak to Strong story
4) Immersive World Background and coherent power scale
5) Plots where the MC struggles a lot and also constantly faces life-threatening situations
6) Sound Grammar (V.V.Important)

    Shameless Promotion! hehe Although mine had supernatural elements added on it my inspiration and where this novel is based was actually from a historical perspective that tackles a (WHAT IF SCENARIO: IF MY COUNTRY WAS NOT COLONIZED) It does not contain cheats so I hope you can give it a try!

    Book Title (Veiled Saga: Conquest and Domination)

    alternatetext

    Synopsis
    "If I can't conquer your heart, I will conquer your land."

    He smirks in the heat of the moment, with drumming heart and trepidation from those audacious words he just declared.

    And finally, he dealt a spit for his last growl:
    "This world shall know Domination!"

    An Ex-General punished with a death sentence, transmigrated from the present back to the past years before his country was colonized.

    Or so he thought?

    Armed with the experience and knowledge as a General, he declares to conquer the world!

    Read as the story befitting of its title, unravels the mysteries of this newfound world, how will he conquer everything in his path to domination? The story behind his punishment, and the people that surround him.

    A Glorious Saga that re-writes history!
    ...

    This is my first novel on this platform, may you like reading my novel!

        "a world without" meets all your criteria: a realistic world reaction to the sudden announcement that "God is Real, but he's forsaken you all". Whether it's true or not is left up for the nations to decide, and, of course, chaos unfolds around a Japanese exchange student stuck in D.C. during the ensuing riots.

        She, alone, has a power - so it fits your magical realism, but it's not a system. Her weak-to-strong arc is based on learning how to circumvent her own power so she can control the collateral damage she leaves in her wake.

        She's a nerd who'd rather be writing code, but she's got a long plumbing pipe as her primary weapon and she's constantly at risk - and constantly fighting. Book 1 arc is all about learning how to not wreck her body despite it instinctively trying to keep her alive at all costs.

          Overlord_Venus Lol read your own book. I love and adore how much of a troll you are. XD Side note hun it's been like almost six months and you still haven't read mine. XD

              Wanna try mine? Have a little bit taste of history, politics and war, definitely realistic world (Of course as it is the real world). Yap weak to strong checked, struggling to survive, grammar wise I have a little bit of confidence.

              Still very new in writing, actually just started last month and is still trying to learn, trying to share my readings and research of historical sources that I acquired during the lock down.

              Thanks mate!

                  I have a lot of ongoing and completed works if you'd like to check them out - they're mostly Teenfiction / Young Adul / New Adult and I think (or hope) they're pretty realistic ! :)

                    Dawn of Fate
                    Luminous was just a less then perfect Lady In Waiting and friend to the prince of the red kingdom, and secret girl friend (secret from him) to the knight in training Chasm. But the night before the ball, before Luminous could tell Chasm her feelings for him these dark creatures called the corrupt attack.

                    From that night foword she became the next welder of the Dawn of Fate. A sassy know-it-all sword with powers to stop these creatures as well as the Crow King, the master mind who controls them.

                    But she's going to need a little extra help from a powerful wizard named Vainglorious, who doesn't seem to eager to do it unless there is something in it for him.

                    Will Vainglorious the cold hearted wizard help Luminous on her quest?

                    Will she be able to defeat the Crow King along with other enemies she meets along the way?

                    Will Luminous save her prince/ child hood friend as well as the stoic knight in training/ crush Chasem along with the rest of her kingdom?

                    Without it ending in tragedy?

                      Check out my ongoing dark science fantasy series: "The Darkfallen".
                      It pretty much fits all the criteria: realistic, down to earth world settings, coupled with dark, dystopic theme, immersive world background,
                      complex, terribly flawed yet sympathic well-rounded Anti-heroes. If you onto dark, gritty, realistically violent story with Evil Protagonist, where the morals of characters can range from pure evil to somewhat evil in the brutal world populated by people who each have their own forms of imperfection. Without the option of becoming the "hero" the world needs, newcomers of this world are stuck between the choice of supervillainy and flawed heroism; then this book is definitely for you to explore.
                      If you do find the story interesting, please respond on the comment section for letting me know. Since the book is currently on a mass chapter editing process, you may find some words/names confusing or irrelevant.
