Hi everybody,
I'm ReinaFu and I'm here thanks to Galvatron who sent me an invitation on another forum.
I'm French and I'm a crazy fan of all martial arts movies, mainly the wuxia movies, series and Shaw Brothers' and Cathay's movies.
I'm also fond of musicals comedies (old American ones and the Shaws' and Cathay's ones), Huangmei operas and Cantonese/martial arts old movies.
I'm a great reader too, but unfortunately, here in France, there is no way to find most of the wuxia books mentioned in this forum translated in French. I found 3 books relating the adventures of Chu Liu Xiang that I bought (but it took me at least 6 or 8 years in order to get the three books!), about 8 years ago, I found 2 adventures of the Brave archer (Jin Yong, the beginning of the story) and it's only this year that the three following books (the adventures of Yanguo, if I'm not mistaken) have arrived in French here. I'm currently reading the first book of the Brave archer.
I also have all the Robert Van Gulik's books in French, but that's all that I was able to find in French. That's a pity and a real shame that this genre isn't known and hence not appreciated here !!
As English isn't my first language, I apologize in advance for any grammatical or syntax mistakes I may make, thanks for your understanding.

Our forum is new, but we're trying to post more of wuxia informations and perhaps even English translations of wuxia novels
