I loved the series-- great detail, wonderful faces-- but the ending disappointed me greatly. It just made no sense, seeming to have been written as a religious tract!
No spoilers, you may understand it as I did not, but I wish the series had ended one book sooner!
This was better than the last one. There are a lot more interesting things happening here, especially with Li Mu Bai's fight against Golden Spear and others. Apparently, the next volume is the last one. I have no idea how this coincides with the movie. So Man Sing (who's that, the editor?!) wonders aloud at the end if writing about a Buddhist is encouraging Buddhism instead of the Christianity he has newly found. Yes, So, you are betraying Jesus, now you have to edit another series about a Christian warrior to make up for it.
