Hi, are there any Christian wuxia fans here? I'm hoping to hear from any truly dedicated Christians, or people who have a deep burden for the world and others' spiritual welfare (regardless of what state you're in at this time), who like wuxia novels or would enjoy them. If you're unfamliiar with the term wuxia, it's basically chinese martial arts.
In short, they are "stories of powerful romantic swordsmen/women and their adventures to rid evil", taking place in a part of China's mythical past, and comparable to sci-fic and fantasy. There are english translations available of stories like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, just as an example, but most of the famous wuxia novels are much better than that story (in my opinion).
