《五代史通俗演义》是一部卷帙浩瀚、通俗易懂的中华通史，也是一本普及中国传统历史文化知识的史学巨著和文学巨著。具有极强的史学价值、文化价值、珍藏价值、馈赠价值。这部用章回小说体裁形式写的小说不像《三国演义》那样创造了一系列艺术形象的文学作品，而是史实力求确凿的通俗历史书，是一部观念先进、文笔优美，足以充分反映历史真实的新的中国历代通俗演义。(The Dramatized History of the Five Dynasties is a vast and easy to understand narrative history of China. It is also a monumental work of historiography and literature in popular Chinese traditional history and culture. It is highly historical value, cultural value, collection value and also a good gift. This novel in chapters style book is unlike the series of literary works of artistic images created by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, rather it is a popular history of conclusions derived from historical facts. It is a new Chinese successive dramatized history with advanced concepts, elegant writing, and is ample enough to reflect the historical reality.)
