review 1: Easily one of the best novel series ever written, and my personal favourite out of Jin Yong's impeccable repertoire. The story revolves around the pretext of Good vs Evil and how differing points of view exists depending on which side of the fence you are on. The main character is someone of moral good, yet plenty of weaknesses that turns out to be the character's main strength and unique character. The plot is excellently crafted and woven with deep intricacies that leaves you pondering for long periods of time after finishing the story. Simply amazing.
review 2: My favorite book from Jin Yong. I re-read it once every year. I still wonder whether there is a good quality translation so I can introduce it to my non-Chinese friends. Jin Yong is a great Chinese a... moreuthor. He came from a scholar's family (as far back as early Qing dynasty) and wrote fourteen great books. His books are like reading the story of "Crouching tigher, Hidden Dragon," but with a lot more breadth and depth. They are also often very funny. His books are tremendously influential among Chinese speakers. less
