I bought the first book with the intent to buy the rest if I liked it. I did like it and the series is now one of my favorite series and I have recommended it to different friends and given copies as gifts.
Not sure what you mean. These books are in English. They were translated from Chinese, by Anthony Yu. If I remember right, the translation was part of his work for his PhD.
The best translation with scholarly calibre I had encountered for I had read it in its original form during my youth. The commentary section is the real gem. Internet was non existent then and I did not know what a "wood fish" meant. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wooden_fish. For those interesting in translation or learning Chinese or English, a side by side text comparison of the two languages is truly a piece of art.
