actually, i made this just so i can easily find every LN (Light Novel) and WN (Web Novel) that i still read, or haven't...

ONGOING means :

1. the novel still in progress, both the RAW version or the translation version.

2. the novel is complete in RAW version, and yet... the translation still in progress...

I've read a lot of novels here and I've stopped reading a lot of novels.

This list includes the few gems in the heap of ashes and dirt.

These are the Novels that I read throughout my journey in this site. Either good or bad, I’ll rate and try to review it to help you find a decent novel. 
Will update as I find new novels... more>>

Note: these aren’t listed in order and novels are rated out of 10.
Scale:
1-2— bad, like seriously (just no)
3-4 below average or average with some bad qualities (probably don’t recommend )
5-6- average ( doesn’t mean they’re bad tho!)

7-8 above average for this site (highly recommend)

9-10 just read it (best novels that I have read on the site, (take it with a pinch of salt)) <<less

Finding good fantasy weak(or not so weak)-to-strong novels is a pain. Therefore, this list has been made to help you find the good stuff without having to touch manure!... more>>

Individual reviews are work in progress. If you have suggestions, please give them, I need more reading material. I also recommend checking out anything by Vihyungrang, Andur, or LupineKing on Royal Road. <<less

I am really really picky reader and I hate young masters and the usual cliche stuff in novels. Plus I dislike the cliche isekai novels that are made out of a cookie cutter.... more>>

Generic novels are my nemesis, so here are the not so generic novels. <<less

No description.

How would you bring technology into a fantasy world? Make sense of the magics? Feed people and get rid of the corrupt nobles? This is specifically on developing a city or territory, not:
- Developing a dungeon/core (see my other list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10742/)... more>>

First, a few worthy mentions that aren't on NU:
1. Castle Kingside (rewrite) - a lot of inspiration from Release that Witch, imo improved! Warning: it's slow. Kingdom only begins around c60ish.
2. The iron teeth - although territory development comes late in the story, it's well done and exotic, being based on a goblin kingdom
3. 1632 (published book) - an American village goes back to the 30 years war. It's much less fantastical, but has a lot of similar elements to other kingdom building novels.
4. The Eagle's Flight - highly intricate fantasy webnovel
5. Defiance of the fall
6. Randidly Ghosthound - neither Randidly nor Defiance of the Fall focus on kingdom building, but they both have elements related to setting up a post-apocalypse system city - complete the quest to get the village crystal/coin!
7. The Expansion (Legend of the Arch Magus) - [have not yet read] - recommendation from Hitexh in the comments
8. Enlightened Empire - weaker than the others <<less

They should mostly be transport or reincarnation recommendations. Most of these are also harems.  If you like these types, feel free to enjoy because I... more>> have.  It is also rated from what I like most to least. <<less
