Features: Following Han Han, another young writer has emerged, painting a magnificent scene for the literary world of 2003! Perfectly blending exquisite Eastern characters with mystical Western fantasy literature, the entire work exudes a mysterious atmosphere, possessing the epic and legendary grandeur of The Lord of the Rings. Amidst the distant fantasies of holy wars, fragmented love stories intertwine. The fantasy originates from the heavens, light, romantic, unrestrained, leading you to open the mysterious gate in your mind, allowing your imagination to soar freely, with the spirit of thought wandering in the boundless world, where every step reveals boundless scenery. The arrival of Fantasy City seemed to declare its destined identity from the very beginning, like the Emperor of the Fantasy Snow Empire. A freshman student, in the form of grand fantasy, opened a door for people, and from this door, ten thousand copies of Fantasy City surged forth, quickly becoming the second on the bestseller list at the Beijing Book Fair. Before the spring Wind Literature Publishing House released the novel Fantasy City, the same-named short story had already been published in Mengyuan, creating a sales record for that issue. Cao Wenxuan told the reporter that although the author of Fantasy City, Guo Jingming, belongs to the same group of young writers who published books as Han Han, Chen Jiayong, Hu Jian, etc., after reading Fantasy City, he felt "finally there was some comfort." The work, full of fantasy and grandeur, is described by Cao Wenxuan as "using a noble and solemn tone, without a trace of frivolity." This author, Guo Jingming, who was little-known at the end of 2002, has now been hailed as the new champion of youth fiction following Han Han. "Many years later, I stood on the coast of a land with a refining stone, facing the sea, facing my kingdom, facing my subjects who bowed to me, facing the clamor of the mortal world, facing the snow birds of the sky, tears streaming down my face." This is a peculiar book. On one side is the Fire Tribe, on the other is the Ice Tribe, on one side is the City of Flames, on the other is the Empire of Fantasy Snow. The work belongs to pure fiction, originating from fantasy. And this fantasy is light, romantic, and unrestrained. Its scenes and stories are not on the ground but in the sky. The conception of the work is more like a free-spirited journey. The vast expanse of the sky, the spirit of thought wanders in the boundless world, where every step reveals boundless scenery.
