About “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”
The Legend of the Condor Heroes is a wuxia novel by Jin Yong, the first part of the Condor Trilogy. It was first published in serial form between 1957 and 1959 in the Hong Kong Commercial Daily. The novel was later revised by the author in the 1970s and 2000s. It is followed by The Return of the Condor Heroes and The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber. The English title is considered inaccurate, as neither the Andean nor the Californian condor is native to China. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
