Is Providence a science fiction or a good novel?

God's will is a science fiction novel, but it incorporates ancient historical figures and mythological elements in China, including mythical figures such as Long (actually Fuxi) and historical figures such as Han Xin. Science fiction with this theme is rare, with fantasy and even fantasy color, so it is often mistaken for "non-science fiction". This kind of novel often takes some historical mysteries as the plot breakthrough point, and then uses some sci-fi settings to give the author his own "assumptions", such as: the birth of human beings = the sowing of alien civilization; Mythical animals = genetic engineering; Gods = advanced intellectual civilization.

In my opinion, providence is a good novel. It has created the market sales record of China's science fiction since 1985, and it was the first best-selling local science fiction in the 20th century, and kept this record until the famous Three-body appeared.
