Reader Reactions...

 

Dear PlumPub
I'm just writing to say that I have received my copy of "Lone sword against the cold cold sky" and all is safe and sound !
Although I have only read a few of the articles I think this book should come with a warning "..this may seriously transform your practice" !!!
Thanks for the prompt delivery.

Hi Debbie,
 I've just received my order yesterday (the delivery is quite fast!!).. I'd like to let you know that the new book.of essays by Sifu Adam Hsu is really a BRILLIANT book.. yeh as Ted said  it's worth of 100 martial arts books.. as I also practised Yin fu Baqua chang in the lineage of grandmaster Liu Yun Chao, I really appreciated the information he released on the art of baqua chang in particular.. this book is really a treasure for martial arts enthusiasts.. this is THE BEST martial arts books I've ever read in years!!!
 
Best Regards, KP

 

Debbie,
Wow, I am flipping out over this book. Mr. Hsu has put A LOT of really good principles to words down in this here. Lone Sword Against The Cold Cold Sky has definitely ousted The Sword Polisher's Record as my favorite martial arts book. If there was such thing as "required reading" in a martial arts class, then this would have to be on the list. In fact I've already called a few of my martial arts buddies and demanded they get this book ASAP!...
