Cang's Ramblings

Chapter 1296 1294. Comments on "Walking Alone in the Abyss"

Hello everyone, I am Cang Yiwei.

Today I would like to recommend a new book by a great author to you.

"Walking Alone in the Abyss", back to the topic, the great writer.

Category: Science Fiction - Star Civilization.

Summary:
At the moment the earth exploded, the fear of death finally turned into physical suffering, and the pain of burning was imprinted in the deepest part of Yang Ming's memory.

"The universe is the abyss."

Yang Ming murmured softly in the starlight.

[PS: This isn't a game story. The early game setup will be explained in full logic in the mid-term. I'm starting over on a different track, and this isn't my usual style, so I won't be promoting my older books. Just think of me as a newcomer. This is my first foray into interstellar science fiction, so please feel free to point out any details. I already have a serious science fiction short story, "Afterglow," which science fiction readers can check out first.]

【Brief Comment】

His masterpiece is "My Senior Brother is Too Steady", which was extremely popular at the time and overshadowed "The Legend of Lan Ke".

Before that, his "The Legend of Honghuang Erlang" and "The First Sword on Earth" actually helped him gain a lot of popularity, and the several pseudonyms he had before that also laid a solid foundation for his writing ability.

But despite his fame, he actually struggled to live up to it. Senior Brother Wenjie was so highly praised that his subsequent Xianxia novels, "This Human Immortal is Too Serious" and "The Last Big Boss in Heaven," not only failed to enjoy the glory, but were constantly compared to him, and the gap between them among readers grew day by day.

So, he double-opened this science fiction novel, which was quite risky. Yesterday, he raised his inner doubts in the book "Big Brother", and was ready to leave it unfinished and cut it off directly.

Perhaps by cutting that book, he will have more energy to write this new interstellar book.

In fact, this book has already gained two silver alliances, but the number of collections is only over 30,000. In the most prosperous period in the past, a silver alliance could even increase the collection by 100,000.

This shows how cautious readers are now about new books, even from a renowned author. I've also read the new book and mentioned it in a previous short video. His desire to switch gears and continue his pursuit of excellence is certainly commendable. In reality, science fiction has always been a difficult genre to achieve success in. Many hardcore sci-fi authors, once committed to it, have been forced to switch to other genres, such as The Ultimate Eternity.

The audience for hardcore science fiction is very small, and there are even fewer authors who write well. In short, it is not popular.

The content is actually not new, it is neither hardcore, nor passionate, nor humorous, and has basically lost all his previous characteristics. That is why he modestly wants to be a newcomer.

Ancient gods, mechas, interstellar space, etc., what readers think of first is actually Tomato’s "Devouring the Starry Sky". It uses the background of the game to give the protagonist a cheat code after traveling through time, but does not directly add a system. This shows that it does not want to go the way of mindless point addition, but wants something real, but not much.

From "The Other Side of Deep Space", "Embers of the Deep Sea", "The Naming of the Night", "Professional Player of the Universe", to "Mecha Storm" and "Defending Nanshan Park", I always feel that the ways to write are getting narrower and narrower, the pressure of internal competition is rising one after another, and the difficulty of innovation is getting higher and higher.

In short, it is unlikely that his new book will be successful. If it is cut again, his account will be in great danger.

Friends who are short of books can go and take a look.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment.

I’m Cang Yiwei, and I’m here to promote “Cang’s Ramblings”.

Welcome to the paradise of book reviews.
