I recommend the following novels: "The Legend of the Ranger Wu Ling","The Evolution of Reproduction from the Locust","Empire Map", and "Dominator: The Rise of the Zerg". They were all about the protagonist leading the race to grow stronger. Some of them were in the post-apocalyptic crisis, and some were in the fierce competition of the foreign continent. The protagonists in these novels all had passion and determination, and were committed to improving the strength and status of their race. They were very worth reading. I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
