I can only give suggestions on fantasy books, particularly eastern fantasy book series with young adults as the primary audience. These are series with thousands of chapters (about 2000 words per chapter).
I’ll try to only give good suggestions
Chinese:
– Novels by Er Gen (not in order)
— I Shall Seal the Heavens
— A Will Eternal
— Pursuit of the Truth
— Renegade Immortal
– Comedy with good story
— Library of Heaven’s Path
​
– Western Inspired Story
— Lord of Mysteries (has a sequel in progress)
​
– Gritty with Ruthless MC:
— Reverand Insanity (unfinished because banned in China and author is Chinese, still recommend)
— Warlock of the Magus World
​
– Stories where MC is super powerful but is ignorant about that fact
— I Am Actually a Cultivation Bigshot
— I’m Really Not The Demon God’s Lackey
​
Korean:
– Power Fantasy
— Second Life Ranker
— Solo Levelling (visual novel/manhwa/comic is also completely translated)
​
– Critically acclaimed
— Release that Witch
— The Novel’s Extra
​
If you read all of these series, you should be entertained for at least a couple of months. There are more I haven’t mentioned because they are either a little lower quality or unfinished as of writing this comment. You can discover them on your own if you take a fancy.

What would make it for a male reader? Real question. Do you need a male protagonist? Do you need it to be specifically about male things like…I don’t know, honestly.
