Acerca de esta escucha
There is only one kind of justice in the jianghu: the kind you bring with a sword.
Shu Yan is done being sold—first by her parents, and then by the owner of the brothel where she has been a serving girl.
Now a runaway with a price on her head, she has to choose: the dangers of being a young girl alone in the world, or the dangers of accompanying a legendary swordsman bent on revenge?
And maybe, if she can convince him to take her along, he will learn Shu Yan isn't the only one who needs the help of others.
Inspired by classic Kung Fu films and spaghetti western movies, Sword of Sorrow, Blade of Joy is the first volume of tales of the swordsman—adventures of wuxia action, witty banter, martial arts camaraderie, bandits, princesses, and treacherous villains.

Lu Jie woke up in a world filled with scheming sects, arrogant young masters, and the mad chase for the immortal heavens. He wanted none of it, and soon finds himself beaten bloody in a spar he didn't remember and treated as less than worthless. But his plan to escape the sect is interrupted by an old Alchemist's pills that heal him within moments—a magical cure. These medicines ignite the flame of curiosity to learn true magic in him. Lu Jie sets out to study the truths hidden within the world, and soon finds an all new path of cultivation that could take him to the very top.

Historia
Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

It's Ruwen’s Ascension Day, and he finally dies for the first time. His newly revived body can learn spells and abilities for the class given him by the Goddess Uru, and dying is no longer permanent. Ruwen’s high intelligence makes becoming a Mage inevitable. With his new powers, he will locate his parents and clear their family name. But nothing goes as Ruwen imagined, and when a rival God tries to kill Ruwen shortly after his disastrous Ascension, his focus turns from his future to just surviving.

Historia
Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward. Too afraid to move forward, to take risks. Yet when given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent". Empowered by the "System", he learns that he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication.

Excellent Wuxia Adventure!
Sword of Sorrow, Blade of Joy is an excellent Wuxia Adventure. If you enjoy tales with conflicted heroes who find themselves with unlikely sidekicks, who get them into crazy amounts of trouble, which requires epic sword fights.... Look no further. Lee's first book is a great introduction into the wide world of Wuxia. I can't wait to start the sequel!

Captivating an intense
No, I’m not a huge reader, but this book really caught my attention right off the bat! The story and the detail were absolutely amazing. I love the Asian culture and certain history behind it. I would recommend this to anybody of all ages.

Best duo since The Hound and Arya
or maybe even Leon and Mathilda. It was great sword slinging wuxia action, and since I don't want the story to die, here I am. Can't wait to see what happens to the duo next.

A world of adventure....
WOW.... I haven't felt this much excitement since I was a kid in the seventies discovering Robert E. Howard for the first time. J.F. Lee's stories are quite different from REH, but the same muscular prose is at play, and the page turning obsession to find out what happens next.... Here are doomed heroes and enchanted swords, and martial arts, and derring do, and stories that will touch your heart and thrill your mind's eye. This has the fun aspects of anime, like Samurai Champloo crossed with the hard prose of a master storyteller who doesn't get caught up in minutiae, and knows how to propell the story he is telling ever forward..... I bought this on a whim, after watching Come Drink With Me ..... And now I'm hooked.... Went out and bought everything I could find by this author..... Highly recommend!!!!

Amazing story, weak narration.
I started reading the kindle version, and decided to get the Audible to listen at work, but I couldn't get through it. Authors who narrate their own works know what their characters sound like, but rarely have the ability to perform. This isn't an exception. If this gets re-released with a professional narrator, I'll give it another go.

Fun and adventurous wuxia!
Really enjoyed listening to this gem of an indie wuxia story. JF Lee did a great job narrating and voicing different characters throughout the story, and it was really engaging to listen to. The action was all compelling as well. If you're interested in more wuxia stories in audiobook format, definitely recommend this for your audiobook collection!

Wuxia is alive and well with JF Lee
Inbetween waiting for the English translations of Jin Yong’s Return of the Condor Heroes I’ve been itching for anything to fill the gap and satiate my craving for more of this genre. Enter JF Lee and Tales of the Swordsman. Very clearly a love letter to the genre as well as other influences (Li Ming & Shu Yan feel very inspired by Mugen & Fuu of Samurai Champloo), it never hinders the storytelling or the adventure you’re embarking on in this series. I’m very appreciative of what Lee is delivering with this series, and I’m so glad I rolled the dice on giving the series a shot. Having just finished book 1, I’ll be ordering the next of the series after hitting submit on this review. Is it perfect? No. However, it’s incredibly fun, engaging, and the strengths of the story make up for any weaknesses it may otherwise have.

Kept me smiling while on the edge of my seat
I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook! It brought to mind the fantasy martial arts movies I grew up watching with my dad and the Asian dramas I love watching now. The author narrates, and he does a fabulous job capturing each character's personality. I loved the banter between the characters, especially!
