Whether Lovable or not, let's Expose and share information about all the Overlooked Gu Long Novels.
Below I have tried to identify a comprehensive list of the titles that I would consider Overlooked. Please share your experience with them: whether they are related to other novels, which ones are good, which ones are not so good, etc...
剑气书香 (1960)
one of his early works; listed as incomplete and missing to public
剑气严霜 (?)
similarly titled as above; are they related? Anyone know when this one was written? Partly (mostly?) written by Mo Yusheng... this seems to be a really long novel
铁剑红颜 (?)
Partly (mostly?) completed by Yu Donglou
菊花的刺 (?)
listed as partly completed by another author
怒剑狂花 (1982)
Completed by Gu Long's disciple Ding Qing... listed as the opening novel of the 群侠传 series ??
那一剑的风情 (1982)
Same as above... part of the 群侠传 series
边城刀声 (1983)
Same as above... part of the 群侠传 series
Is a continuation of Bordertown Wanderer?
白玉雕龙 (1981)
Listed as a continuation of Jade Tiger; largely completed by another author
剑毒梅香 (1960)
One of his first novels... but it's already partly written by somebody else? I guess Gu Long started this tradition early!
By the way, this seems to be one HUGE novel, = the length of the ENTIRE 8 Luk Siu Fung installments!!
失魂引 (1961)
Another early effort; organized as one of the 金剑侠魂系列 in my collection (?)
残金缺玉 (1962)
Another early effort; organized as one of the 金剑侠魂系列
I've been told by TigerWong that this isn't that great...
彩环曲 (1962)
Another early effort; organized as one of the 金剑侠魂系列
游侠录 (1961)
Another early effort; organized as one of the 金剑侠魂系列
孤星传 (1960)
Another early effort; organized as one of the 金剑侠魂系列
Both TigerWong and Laviathan have very low opinion of it
湘妃剑 (1960)
Another early effort; organized as one of the 金剑侠魂系列
月异星邪 (1960)
His 2nd novel
护花铃 (1962)
Another early effort
苍穹神剑 (1960)
His debute work!!!!!
飘香剑雨 (1963)
I must say: cool title!
Bloody Parrot (1976)
Listed as originated by Gu Long but maybe partly written by Huang Ying?
Opening installment of the 惊魂六记 that are sometimes credited to Gu Long but are actually written by Huang Ying?
7 Weapons series (1974 - 1978)
①长生剑 ②孔雀翎 ③碧玉刀 ④多情环 ⑤霸王枪 ⑥离别钩
拳头 (又名《愤怒的小马》,曾被收入《七种武器》,误)
Lover's Arrow (1964)
Actually I'm not sure if this qualifies as an Overlooked title, but I haven't heard anyone speak of it other than TigerWong, so I dare put it on this list. This should be one of his first "good" novels, along with 浣花洗剑录
