Survival

The best books I have ever stumbled across [in no particular order].
You can comment books you believe are the best you have seen yet (although this is only relative) for others to also read.
The books you should comment should fulfill at least one of these criteria:
— The best of their genre.
— A diamond in the rough.
— So unique that they are a breath of fresh air.
— They are one of the most fascinating read on the internet.... more>>

Unfortunately, this list only includes CN, JP, KR that have been translated. Because of this, it won't include other extremely good webnovels that are written outside the three category (CN,JP,KR).

Some books like that are: Chrysalis, Tyranny of Steel and so on. They are worthy of being on this list but they don't fall under the three categories.

Those added to this list or commented must be truly worthy of being called, Peak Fiction.

(I will continue to add more peak Fiction as I find them over the years.) <<less

little to no romance

Good novels in some way connected to games (Virtual reality, MMORPG, even fantasy with gamer aspects).

(There's a second list, just add a 2 to the name of this list and you'll find it) ... more>>

There are too many novels with cliché romance and harems with annoyingly useless girls. Reading them gets extremely tiring. There are too few novels with absolutely no form of romance or harem. Here are some novels I've found to not have romance/harem or have an harem/romance theme that didn't affect the plot of the novel to the point of it being annoying. 

Feel free to recommend novels that fit the criteria, arigatou^o^

P. S. I haven't read all the novels in this list so I might not be accurate in judging them. And there are some I've read but didn't finish and the novel ended up having romance or harem elements in a later chapter, please feel free to correct me anytime you see that I wasn't accurate.

All novels that I did not put in my other list/belongs in here. I enjoyed most of them as I definitely did read enough chapters to add these here.... more>>

Though  these reasons are not simply negative though as some good novels are here ---- reasons these may be here:

(a) Dropped because not good enough, not to my taste, too boring, was mistaken of the story, or I enjoyed them without thinking of the quality itself (b) Not bad, but reading-on-hold for now, (c) Hiatus, Stopped novels (d) Enjoyed and read but not good enough (e) Locked behind paywall so I put aside for now because I'm paying for other things (e) Not translated yet or only read the start so I have initial impressions (which may be neutral or has some negative in it, for example: Dungeon defense WN as I inevitably get somewhat disappointed it isn't more like the LN)

I thought how about list all novel without harem that is good for reading in the free time, then here I was, make it. Basically I put ALL GENRES in one list, BUT they don't have harem tag. Ah, ofc the mc is male. And unlike the other lists, I don't arrange the novels based on its stars. But at least, I put them according their origin (kr-cn-jp) ... more>>

If anyhow you guys found a title with harem inside and I put it here, please tell me. Thank you! <<less

More often than not, stories I included had some grim parts to them. Where I find it necessary, I'll put a warning. 

Some stories are simply positive. Not everything needs to be dark. <<less
