An Important Work.......2004-09-05

This book is about change. About changing ourselves and changing the world one person at a time, or in this case, seven people at a time.
It is about clearing away negativity, misunderstanding, illusions about ourselves and the world we live in, and in turn clarifying truth and spirit in our lives. It has led me to a much greater understanding of myself, and my place in the universe.
It teaches us that we are all spiritual beings of the Creator, and that we must all learn to live together not just as one voice, one people, but as one world.
There is a WEALTH of spiritual knowledge, wonder, and beauty that builds on the information presented in this book.
For those of you wondering where you "fit in" spiritually, this is a very good starting place.
Of particular note is the subject of The Seven Churches and The Seven Gifts to Humanity. Each of you will find reflections of yourselves in these pages.
Are you one of the "Sevens"? If you are reading this, then it is very likely, and your journey is just beginning.
The Book of Bricks presents basic principles of living, pertaining to all beings everywhere.
Archangel Michael's words will move you and shake you, and Joe's trials and efforts as a man taking direction from the angels messages will humble you.
Give yourself the gift of this book. And help make the world a true heaven on earth.

Barnum was right!!.......2001-08-30

What garbage! This is for people who have spent too much time watching PAX or LifeTime. There are thousands and thousands of valuable books in the world...this is NOT one of them. This is nothing more than a thinly disguised attempt to cash in on the angel craze. I have met and spoken with the author, and his statements are so skewed and innacurate as to be almost criminal. Buy a comic book--it's a better investment of money, and not nearly as much of an insult to the reader's intelligence.

Another opening, another schmoe.......2001-08-25

The only way this book could contain more B.S. is if it were a descriptive essay of the Chicago stockyards. I have met the author, and the only way HE could contain more B.S. is if he were a cow!!

Excellent book for those who believe in a loving God.......2001-07-17

This is the most incredible book. It has the power to change lives. Too often, many people buy into the fear based religious dogma and under the auspice of being "Christian" spew venom and hatred as was shown here by some reviewers.

As a person who once considered becoming a nun, I always knew that the God I worshiped could not possibly be the same one written about in the bible. After all, I believed in a loving and forgiving God. A God who loves all his children just as he created them. How unfortunate for those people who believe that our God is capable of the type of hatred they seem to espouse.

Thank goodness I woke up and realized I could better serve humanity if I didn't commit myself to a religion that makes women into second class citizens and uses words written in a book over two thousand years ago by mere mortal men, as the basis for their "religion". The bible is a nice work of fiction and nothing more than that.

Wings is a wonderful book for those of us raised in traditional religions yet felt there was much more to the story. As the mother of two wonderful children, I feel it is very important that my children learn that love comes in all different shapes and sizes. Love and God do not decide your worthiness based upon your gender, your race or even your sexuality. For those who put the book down before Chapter 3, Bless your hearts. You clearly have much work to do yet on yourselves. There is much more to this book than it's standpoint on [homoesexual] people. You truly missed a wonderful opportunity to see God as he really is. All loving.

disgraceful.......2000-06-25

how could God who killed whole populations of cities known to be homosexual now contradict Himself. This angel can't be from God. But then the satan was a liar from the beginng.

Graphic SF Reader.......2007-09-04

Super crazy macho kung-fu, Chinese style. Super kung fu guy nutso goes around killing other similar guys to draw out a master.

Not much luck there. The fifth brother of the Wu-Tang clan has adventures, meets yet another super kung-fu guy, and also a girl. Much posturing with various secret super cool powers, etc.

Throw in some magic swords.

Then a kid.

Great Action Comic.......2006-03-24

If I would have known these books were so cheap online I would have been ordering them all the time. Anywayz....... I have volumes 1-5 and they are awesome!!!! I first found one of these on the bus and did some online research and found about these different series of books. I am so addictid now! <--- probably spelled that wrong. Any way, if you like kung fu movies and comics you can definately enjoy these books, because they have fantastic art which seems a lot like Jim Lee's work (artist for the Old X-Men comics and Batman currently). This story starts off with sort of a romeo and juliet type of plot and then its the typical revenge plot in kung fu stories when the son of the couple gets older and theres the typical sublots through out the story as read. The action sequences are in my opinion breath taking. The lines used to show movement perfectly portray the kung-fu in this line of comic graphic novel.

A Great Adaptation.......2004-06-30

Having read the Chinese story several years ago, I was surprised and excited to find it in comic book form. This is a great story about heroism and Chinese culture. And the story is exciting: intrigue, subplots, deception, fighting, and a little love thrown in to balance it all out. The art is exceptional, my only complaint is the blatant un-feminine appearance of the female monks-they look just like the men, and it's confusing to people that aren't aware of the story.

All in all, it's a great introduction to Chinese culture, and an exciting comic book for those that aren't that interested in it. For a true taste of Jin Yong's (née Louis Cha) writing make sure to check out John Minford's translation of "The Deer and the Cauldron" also here on Amazon.

Ma Wing Shing's incredible illustrations with Cha's story!.......2003-02-02

I have,so far, 4 volumes of this large comic book from Comics One, and if you are a fan of Swordfight stories you will really enjoy this. This is NOT KUNGFU, that you see in movies that are dubbed. I don't know if this story was originally told in serial form in daily newspapers in Hong Kong or not, but Louis Cha is a very popular author among Chinese readers. This is a swordfight story which is a totally different genre of storytelling. I guess the closest comparison would be to Stormriders (the movie and Comic with Cheng Ekin and Aaron Kwok, that was originally a comic illustrated and told by Ma Wing Shing. The next closest comparison would be to "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" the movie and comic book and story. Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre is beautifully illustrated and tells,in the first 4 volumes, the story of Wuji, a little boy born to parents from oposing warring clans. It is about his adventures, and how he is influenced by his Father's nobility/righteousness of character (a member of the Wu Tang clan specializing in internal skills) and his love for his mother "a sorceress of the evil sky clan". The first volume tells of how his father and mother meet and it is a dashing romantic story that hooks you and makes you feel you care and want to know more about how the improbable marriage of a beautiful "sorceress" to an idealistic chivalrous young man works out, and the magic and mystery surrounding the heaven sword. There is poetry when Louis Cha (who has written many stories)has the sorceress start falling in love with Wuji's future father when he challenges an enemy with internal skills calligraphy imprinted onto the side of a stonemountain. The second volume deals with their son meeting the consequences of his parents love for each other as they go back home, and face their relatives and clan members. The third volume starts with the adventures of Wuji, and the meeting of a number of people such as an evil healer and a number of different little girls that he ends up meeting again when he is grown up. Many styles of fighting/internal chi and weapons techniques are mentioned throughout, after all, this is a Swordfight comic, and I like every aspect of it. The illustrations are gorgeous, and it is not the wide-eyed comics that you may have seen. Unfortunately, the cover of the 1st volume doesn't really tell about the story, because the first volume is classic chinese romantic stuff with dashing fighting and display of a number of external/internal hard/soft styles of swordfighting. Heaven Sword is also about the intricate complexity of relationships surrounding the heaven sword and dragon sabre. I love it. I believe this will appeal more to mature readers than to those expecting the "kung fu" that they might have been exposed to.

Marvelous Storytelling, Extraordinary Martial art scene!!!.......2004-10-16

This comic is one of the very best comic I have ever bought. The intelligibly story are extremely well-told and very constructed. You can never find any other comic book like this. The very reason why I decide to give 5 stars is because this comic is excellent and it is a sequel story to Legendary Couple. Wuji Chang is the main character throughout the volume who tried to understand his parent's legacy and the relationship between two superior weapons. It started out that six major schools were fighting against each other for surpremacy and those who obtained this two powerful weapons will entitled as the leader of great martial art throughout China. However, someone from other side of the country also want this weapons for themselves as well. What hold this two special weapons is there are secret scrolls hidden inside the two sword. (I don't know what is it but that I would like to find out in the later volume) There are some special treats in this comic book that you are dying for to know more about the legend of Tai Chi Master ------- Grandmaster Chang San Feng and founder of Wu Tang. There are lot of information that you would be please to know more what made Wu- tang school so famous for it creation of Tai Chi. As well, there are also more to mention about other kind of surpreme styles such as Alter Universe and Radiant 9. Wuji Chang is the youngest to become the 34th leader of powerful Ming Rebels Clan and the only person to master the seventh and the last stage of Alter Universe. (Previous Leader of Ming Rebel only reached the fourth stage of Alter Universe and will not dared go further. Why? That you have to buy and find more about what make "Alter Universe" style so special) I highly recommended it. Buy it. Trust me, you will not regret once you read the story.
