For a boring white kid with a weird love for old fashioned pulp hero sagas? Great fun. Like making my friends watch the handful of Wuxia movies that made it into English subtitle distribution through Hollywood Video in the late 90s. Like watching Zorro when the Disney channel used it as midnight filler. Like the games you play tat are excuses to beat your little brother with a stick. Pure, delightful id, on the surface, run through with tension and drama in the ~1/4 of the book not spent describing various punches.
