I'm looking for new stories to read.

So you have an idea of what I like:
I'm currently reading Coiling Dragon (Novel), "Mother of Learning", Douluo Dalu (Novel), Shinka no Mi (Novel)
Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (Novel), Ark (Novel), The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor (Novel), "Pact", "Worm", "Super Powereds" and "The Zombie Knight" are good, but have them in the on hold list.
Is there any good novel that I'm missing? Maybe something new?

P.D. Mushoku Tensei (Novel), Re:Monster (Novel), Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari (Novel), Yuusha Party no Kawaii Ko ga Ita no de, Kokuhaku Shite. (Novel) and Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (Novel) are just ok, I don't think I will keep reading them.

P.D.2 Just found out that Wildbow has started a third novel "Twig". Anything else?

I've been on a wuxia kick as of late, so anything by the author of Coiling Dragon - I Eat Tomatoes, which The Desolate Era (Novel) (still early in translation) and Xingchenbian (Novel) (over 10 volumes out)

as well as Xian Ni (Novel) (this one is about a talentless person with perseverance and luck).

Doupo Cangqiong (Novel) AKA Battle through the heavens is a really good one. I've been reading machine translations of the raws, and it gets INCREDIBLE later on. Unfortunately that's chapter 300...but where the translations are at right now is another great part.

Zhan Long (Novel) is MMO/Wuxia, it's good, but the main character is like uber lucky when it comes to items...a little too lucky.

Knights & Magic (Novel) has 2 volumes out but is on hiatus I think. Mecha + reincarnation + magic.

Overlord (Novel) is awesome and has 3 volumes out right now.

and lastly The New Gate (Novel) is coming along slowly but volume 1 is out.

Happy reading.

Quote from Vudoodude

and lastly The New Gate (Novel) is coming along slowly but volume 1 is out.

Definitely second those two recommendations. You should also try Zectas by John Nest Risou no Himo Seikatsu (Novel) by Watanabe Tsunehiko (plot: summoned salary man MC marries queen of a country in alternate world...lots politics) and Suterareta Yuusha no Eiyuutan (Novel) by Yuuto Ran. 😀

The manga version of "Gate thus the JSDF fought there"
"Daylight over Hyperion" is another web novel at Krytyk's site (home of his OSO fan translation)

And here's a bit of heresy, non-light or web novel recommendations:
"Tinker" by Wen Spencer
"Dark Lord the Early Years" by Jamie Thompson - a fantasy dark lord is defeated and becomes a school kid. Fun read.
