Kai Lung


"The China which Kai Lung inhabits has numerous features of the fantasy Land of Fable, and many of the embedded tales are fantasy; all are told in an ornate manner which ironically, often hilariously, exaggerates the old Chinese tradition of understatement and politesse. The main sequence [... 1900 to 1940, or #1 to #5 below ...] Kai Lung Raises His Voice (coll 2010) usefully assembles all the remaining series stories." --SFE3, biographical entry by John Clute and David Langford
