Description
In the history of geology, more than 500 million years ago, there was a period of the Paleozoic Era known as the Cambrian Period. This period, being the first period of the Paleozoic Era, does not only have a significant meaning for geological research, but is also the most insane, splendid and mysterious period in paleontological history. Before the Cambrian Period, the Earth’s species were relatively monotonous. When the Cambrian Period started, just after millions of years, which is a relatively short period of time in terms of geology, all kind of species on Earth suddenly evolved wildly. Countless invertebrates, arthropods, mollusks, brachiopods, annelids, etc. appeared on the planet without any warning, greatly enriching the diversity of the Earth’s species. This million years period is known as the “Cambrian Explosion”. And after billions of evolutionary years, the Earth today blooms with diverse lives. The cause of the Cambrian Explosion is a huge mystery and also the biggest paradox of Darwin’s theory of evolution. What if… the Cambrian Period comes back in this era when human civilization has already conquered the entire planet, and species once again evolve wildly? What kind of challenge will this planet encounter? What kind of fate will humans, who are falling from the top of the food chain, face?

My Thoughts on The Return of Cambrian Period
"The Return of Cambrian Period" throws you headfirst into a world grappling with a sudden and chaotic resurgence of prehistoric energies. It's a wild ride that blends sci-fi, action, and a touch of the supernatural, all wrapped up in a BL romance. I found myself quickly drawn in by the sheer scope of the story and the unique premise.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked by the apocalyptic setting, but a little unsure of the main character, Cong Xia. He starts as a pretty ordinary office worker, and some readers found him to be a bit weak-willed. However, I appreciated that he wasn't immediately a superhero. His growth throughout the story is a definite highlight, and I ended up really rooting for him.
What Works Well
The world-building is fantastic! The author has clearly put a lot of thought into the Cambrian resurgence and its effects on the world. The plot is intricate, with mysteries unfolding gradually, keeping you guessing. I particularly enjoyed the dynamic between Cong Xia and Cheng Tianbi, the stoic soldier. Their romance is a slow burn, which I personally prefer, and their relationship evolves naturally alongside the main plot. Also, the supporting characters are well-developed and feel like a real team, each with their own quirks and backstories.
Areas of Concern
While I ultimately enjoyed Cong Xia's character development, I can understand why some readers found him frustrating early on. His initial naivete might not appeal to everyone. Also, the plot can get a little convoluted at times, with a large cast of characters and numerous subplots. This complexity might be overwhelming for some readers, though I felt it ultimately added to the richness of the story.

Final Verdict
Despite some minor pacing issues and the initial impression of the main character, "The Return of Cambrian Period" is a compelling and imaginative novel. The blend of apocalyptic action, intricate plot, and slow-burn romance makes it a worthwhile read. If you're a fan of the genre and appreciate character development, I definitely recommend giving it a try. I'm glad I stuck with it, and I think you will be too.
