#THE LEGEND OF THE CONDOR HEROES SERIES#
It’s an unfortunate function of breaking the original series up into different volumes to fit the Western book market. The book is perfect for those who wants to read Historical, books. Because of this, sometimes one of the English translated versions will just end right in the middle of some action or leaving things that had been built up unresolved. The Legend of the Condor Heroes is a beautiful novel written by the famous author Jin Yong. It is that first book that is being translated into the three volumes covered here and the upcoming title later in the year. The first book in the original trilogy is The Legend of the Condor Heroes. The original series consists of three books made up of shorter books (hence that loose episodic feel). They aren’t shrinking violets or damsels in distress, they are quick witted and have superior kung-fu.

There is a ton of action as these different factions cross paths and square off.
The world of Legend of the Condor Heroes is populated with colorful characters who are kung-fu masters and disciples from competing schools.
