Shadow of great britain

At this point, the second volume of this book, "King Arthur Living in Scotland Yard," officially comes to an end.

Looking back at the word count of the second volume, to be honest, it was a lot more than expected.

Part of the reason is that physical factors caused the writing state to fluctuate for a period of time, so the processing of some plots seemed to be procrastinating, and the rhythm of some plots was not grasped well.

Part of the reason is due to some personal selfishness. I want to restore the British social ecology around the 1830s as much as possible. Whether it is political economy, street life or urban appearance, as long as it is within the scope of my personal ability, I will try my best. mentioned.

However, due to the plot arrangement, the book also fails to do its best in certain social and historical backgrounds. If there are friends who are interested in this aspect and want to continue to understand this era in depth, you can refer to the reference book list posted at the end of the chapter.

However, although there were ups and downs in the writing process of the second volume, fortunately, regardless of the ups and downs, the end of the second volume still concluded as originally planned, and it can be regarded as living up to the readers. The support and expectations of the book live up to the title of the volume "King Arthur Lives in Scotland Yard".

In the next third volume, Arthur will leave the Scotland Yard police force and take on a brand new responsibility to join the unfamiliar British diplomatic system. He will also briefly leave the British Three who has not left since his rebirth. Island, as a humble social instrument, travels across the vast Europe.

Go to France, Germany, Russia, wherever he wants to go, he will travel to all the mountains, rivers and lands centered on the Kingdom of Hanover.

He will meet many new friends, encounter many new events, and quietly wait in the sunny land for the day of his judgment.

He will eventually return to Britain in the near future.

Return to the pounding rain in London, return to the mist on the Thames, return to the shadows under the Houses of Parliament, Whitehall Street and the high walls of the Financial City.

Okay, after saying so many words and reflections, it’s time to recommend the must-read items as a starting point. Here, I would like to recommend a new book to everyone.

The new book "Who Can Take the Civil Servant Examination After Being Reborn" by the great urban god Yanagishi Hanaaki has been scheduled to be released on April 1st. The book has been fattened and is ready to be slaughtered at any time.

Although April 1st is April Fool's Day, I'm not kidding you.

There is no need for me to introduce Lao Liu's creative level to everyone here. Readers who have read Lao Liu's famous work "I Really Don't Want to Be Reborn" all know how high Lao Liu's level is. As high as three or four stories.

Readers who like urban literature and rebirth literature can take a look. It is hard to find a better urban book among the recent urban novels than Lao Liu's.
