A complete 4 book set of the best Kung Fu novel since Jin Yong's oeuvre.

Shangguan Ding is the pseudonym of three Liu brothers who penned three acclaimed and successful sets of Kung Fu novels in the 1960's. One of the Liu brothers, Liu Zhaoxuan, became the president of National Qing Hua University.
