historic!au (historical) stories

I've been wondering: why are historic!au stories getting so little attention and feedback? And when I say historical, I mean stories that are set in ancient China or Korea, not necessarily those inspired by the European history. I have troubles with my own historical fic, but I'm also reading this incredible story (like, it's bomb, trust me!) and there's no feedback on it? Is it a genre less preferred or is harder to follow the story and the characters?

I can't be objective on this topic since I love history and I would read anything from this genre (btw, if you know some awesome historical fics with idol x oc feel free to recommend me some^^), so I would like to hear what you think. The story I'm reading, 'Three Black Birds' in case you want to check it outhas such lovely descriptions that it's really easy to picture what the author wants to show you. Another example of historical fic which is awesome is 'A Dragon Among Men'. And trust me when I say that these two are so much better that anything I could ever write ;.; So definitely, the issue is not with the author.

What do you guys think?
