Here's my library...finally got round to taking shots of it. If you want to borrow anything, just PM me and I will reply with details. Postage to and fro (only for paperbacks) will be borne by the borrower. Collection of hardbacks at designated venues can be arranged. All I ask is that you take good care of my stuff.:)

You have the comic version of Sun Zi's Art of War and Yang Family !!! Where did you get it? I wanted to buy the same series for Sanguo Yanyi, but can't find it anywhere.

These very informative comic series used to be published by Singapore's Canfonian Press which is no longer in business but the titles are available via ordering through a form. Sun Zi is my dad's and the Yang family I got at a Bras Basah secondhand store - so angry they didn't have Book 2! :ranting:

I can forward a soft copy of the Canfonian Press order form if you wish.

They also have a complete series of Chinese history from ancient pre-Shang to modern Nationalist-PRC.

Do let me know.:)

Oh yes, they also have Sanguo Yanyi.:)

Yes Yes Yes pls !

I've been wanting to buy the Sanguo Yanyi since I was in Sec 2...hahahaha. During the recent sale in Bras Basah, I saw only 1 volume of Sanguo Yanyi, so that's why I didn't buy it...hahaha

Thanks !!!
