Louis Cha For A Thousand Bucks!



You gots to be fucking kidding me. As of this writing the second volume is $150. The first is more reasonable at twenty four and change to thirty six bucks.

These three volumes (about 1500 pages, total) translates Louis Cha's (AKA Jin Yong) final novel (completed in the very early 1970's into English. There are a number of TV productions (often titled Duke Of Mount Deer) as well as Stephen Chow's 2 Royal Tramp movies.

Too bad they're not available as eBooks. If sales are the main issue keeping them out of print, eBooks could rectify that while keeping the few of us into this sort of thing satisfied.
