Asian SF/F (not Japan)
Mon, May. 12th, 2008 12:12 pmHi! I am lazy and depending on the goodwill of the internet to help with research!
So: tell me about Asian SF/F!
It must be:
I have a slightly better sense of SF/F created in Asia and popular in the US, though if you have notes for your specific country, that would also be good! Please note: NOT from Japan.
For self:
rachelmanija's notes on Indian SF/F
ETA:
Korea:
- Pahanjip (Korean folklore + Tang China ghost hunters, manhwa)
- Bride of the Water God (Korean folklore (?) + alternate world + beast bridegroom, manhwa)
China:
- Swordsman II
So: tell me about Asian SF/F!
It must be:
- Created in Asia by Asians
- NOT from Japan
- Any medium
- Bonus points if I can get my hands on it (I am in the US and read/understand Mandarin Chinese)
- Extra bonus points for SF/F from and/or about Southeast Asia or South Asia
