TransVBook 絕代雙驕 About

This webpage is about 多情劍客無情劍 by 古龍, 'Swordsman With Much Love And The Sword Without Love' by 'Gulong'.

I have started doing this book as the second TransVBook, it'll take a few months.

The first TransVBook 'The Ultimate Twin' is popular while 'Swordsman With Much Love And The Sword Without Love' is one of the best classics of 'wuxia'.

'wuxia' is typically translated as 'emprise', neither word explains what the books are like, this book is very much what its about.

My way of describing it is: "similar to Dungeon And Dragons adventure with lots more action and the magic isn't just something the author made up, it is based on ancient medical science and religion. Zen and Tao wasn't just the worship of gods, the persuit was also about physically enhancing the mind and body, immortality and godhood are among the persuits. The 'physics' is conbined with 'the principles of morality and doing good', the Chinese literature is very abundant in such writings (Robin Hood is an example in English). These gives substance to a fiction in a way that normal fantasy adventures in English don't tend to have."

Have Fun.
