Cruel tyrant Taxian-jun killed his way to the throne and now reigns as the first ever emperor of the mortal realm. Yet somehow, he is unsatisfied. Left cold and bereft, abandoned by all he held dear, he takes his own life...only to be reborn anew. Awakening in the body of his younger self--Mo Ran, a disciple of the cultivation sect Sisheng Peak--he discovers the chance to relive his life. This time, he vows to attain the gratification that once eluded him: all who defied him will fall, and never again will they treat him like a dog. His greatest fury is reserved for Chu Wanning, the coldly beautiful and aloofly catlike cultivation teacher who betrayed and thwarted Mo Ran time and again in their last life. Yet as Mo Ran shamelessly pursues his own goals in this life he thought lost, he begins to wonder if there might be more to his teacher--and his own feelings--than he ever realized.

Lin Feiran never asked to see ghosts—but thanks to a pair of yin-yang eyes he unknowingly inherited from his grandfather, he can’t stop seeing them. The ability brings him more frights than thrills, like the horrifying discovery that his dorm room isn’t home to just two people, but eighteen. And the sixteen extra “roommates”? Let’s just say they like to party… every night. There’s only one way to get a break from the constant hauntings: physical contact with Gu Kaifeng, his annoyingly perfect roommate and the person Lin Feiran has (perhaps unfairly) labeled his archnemesis. The closer the contact, the longer the ghost-free relief lasts, much to Lin Feiran’s dismay. Still, clinging to Gu Kaifeng is better than being scared out of his mind. And to Lin Feiran’s growing confusion, Gu Kaifeng doesn’t seem to mind the clinginess—in fact, he’s surprisingly accommodating. He lets Lin Feiran sleep in his bed, shares his desk, and… even tags along to the toilet. Lin Feiran is desperate to find another solution—any solution—that doesn’t involve sticking to Gu Kaifeng like a human security blanket for the rest of his life. But why does Gu Kaifeng seem so pleased with the current arrangement?

A gargantuan, mind-altering tragi-comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America. Set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are. Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human—and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.
