Alternative Idiom: Calling the Dragon

Features: A series of new narrative novels. Written by a rising young author, fully crafted, ancient stories with a modern twist, subverting the original meanings of idioms like "Ye Gong's Love for Dragons," "Waiting for a Hare at a Stump," "Blinded by a Single Leaf," and offering original, quirky, romantic, passionate, and magical stories. The Call of Dragons explores the difficulties of maintaining divine inner values under different cultural backgrounds and life circumstances, including anxiety, confusion, and ultimately, a sense of liberation. Strange Hare Tales is a collection of five short stories, blending nonsensical, carnival-style banter and intellectual games as the author delves into serious topics like "civilizational conflicts" and "the path of authoritarianism." The Invisible Man uses the magician's art to present seven entirely different outcomes brought by the "magical leaf." The magical leaf, the hidden village, the rapidly shifting social dynamics—how eerily similar they are to our reality.
