EXCERPT:

A man stood a few feet away. At least what was visible looked like a man. He appeared to be a knight, similar to the one in her favorite painting, except semi-transparent. He wore mail and a dark blue surcoat with a leopard embroidered on it in bronze silk. Tall, with shoulder length hair, in the soft lamplight, his eyes were as black as his hair.

笑傲江湖 (v. 1.43)

《笑傲江湖》是金庸1967年写的一部武侠小说。《笑傲江湖》属于金庸的后期作品，其叙事状物，已到炉火纯青、出神入化的境界。《笑傲江湖》所涉及的场景、人物以及各类武林人物交手搏斗的场面不可胜数，但历历写来，景随情转，变化无穷而皆能贴合生活。《笑傲江湖》的中心是武林争霸夺权，为了达到目的，夺取《辟邪剑谱》和《葵花宝典》，最后两派都败在《辟邪剑谱》和《葵花宝典》上。

    《笑傲江湖》系海外新派武侠小说代表作之一，其不仅靠跌宕起伏、波谲云诡的情节引人入胜，更能于错综复杂的矛盾冲突中刻画人物性格，塑造出数十个个性鲜明、生动可感的文学形象。若豁达不羁、舍生取义的令狐冲；娇美慧颉、挚情任性的任盈盈；阴鸷狡诈，表里不一的岳不群；桀骜不驯、老谋深算的任我行；冰清玉洁、相思痴恋的仪琳；虚怀若谷，萧条离寄的冲虚以及逃避纷争寄情于各自喜好的“江南四友”，打诨插科的“桃谷六仙”，皆可为武侠小说的人物画廊增添异彩。作品所高扬侠义、仁爱、富贵不淫、威武不屈的高尚精神对今人仍有强烈的感召力。

鹿鼎记 (v. 1.43)

hui.seraph опубликовал приложение 2011-11-29
(обновлено 2011-11-29)

《鹿鼎记》是香港作家金庸（查良镛）的最后一部长篇武侠小说作品。该小说于1969年－1972年间创作，背景设置在明末清初（1644年-1689年）。
    《鹿鼎记》小说名字的含义为：“逐鹿中原、问鼎中原”、“人为鼎镬，我为麋鹿”。小说以清代康熙年间的社会历史为背景，描写了一个出身于社会最底层的少年韦小宝的传奇经历。
    《鹿鼎记》中，金庸将虚构和历史人物混为一体，历史在金庸的笔下，要圆就圆，要方就方，随心所欲，无不如意。可以一本正经叙述史实，也可以随便开历史玩笑可以史实俱在，不容置辩；也可以子虚乌有，纯属游戏。
    《鹿鼎记》写一个一无所长的人，因缘附会，一直向上攀升的过程。但仔细看下来这个人又决不是一无所长，而是全身皆是本领。他的本领，人人皆有，与生俱来，只不过有的人不敢做，不屑做，不会做，不能做，而韦小宝都做了，无所顾忌，不以为错，所以他成功了。
　　从撒石灰迷人眼，遭茅十八痛打开始，韦小宝没有认过错，他坚决照他自己认为该做的去做。
　　这是金庸在《鹿鼎记》中表现的新观念，突破了一切清规戒律，将人性彻底解放，个体得到了肯定。甚至在男女关系的观念上，也释放得彻底之极，韦小宝一共娶了七个妻子之多。
　　反英雄，反传统，反束缚，《鹿鼎记》可以说是一部“反书”。
　　宣人性，宣自我，宣独立，宣快乐，《鹿鼎记》又不折不扣，是一部“正书”。
    《鹿鼎记》在金庸作品之中，排名第一。

射雕英雄传 (v. 1.43)

(обновлено 2011-11-29)

《射雕英雄传》是金庸中期武侠小说创作的代表作品，也是金庸拥有读者最多的作品，它的发表确立了金庸“武林至尊”的地位。
    《射雕英雄传》又名《大漠英雄传》，是“射雕三部曲”之一，下接《神雕侠侣》《倚天屠龙记》。这部小说历史背景突出，场景纷繁，气势宏伟，具有鲜明的“英雄史诗”风格；在人物创造与情节安排上，它打破了传统武侠小说一味传奇，将人物作为情节附庸的模式，坚持以创造个性化的人物形象为中心，坚持人物统帅故事，按照人物性格的发展需要及其内在可能性、必然性来设置情节，从而使这部小说达到了事虽奇人却真的妙境。
    翻开整部射雕，人物众多，民族矛盾伴随着江湖恩怨，纵横交错，波澜壮阔。这些矛盾是通过郭靖的成长，从郭靖出生到郭靖成长为一代大侠的过程展开的。《射雕英雄传》，可以说是为郭靖立传，或者是一部关于郭靖的传说。我个人认为与其说《射雕英雄传》是关于郭靖的传奇，不如说是关于郭靖和黄蓉两个人的传奇。整个故事失去了郭靖，故事结构和框架会坍塌，但失去了黄蓉，也不成为故事。因为郭靖和黄蓉是密不可分的。更确切地说，《射雕英雄传》是关于郭靖和黄蓉两个人的江湖。

Gurbani Nirvaan (v. 1.3)

Vayu Waves опубликовал приложение 2011-11-28
(обновлено 2011-11-28)

Gurbani Nirvaan is a humble effort to present a highly enriched app for Gurbani reference to those who adore Gurbani, comprising roadmap for banis from Shri Guru Granth Sahib ji, Vaaran Bhai Gurdas ji, Shri Dasam Granth  Sahib and other Sacred texts.

Salient Features of the App:
**********************
• Efficient “Gurbani Search”, search with wild cards, search can be performed in FOUR ways
     - On Sentences typing first alphabet of the word in a sentence in Gurmukhi / English
     - Word(s) and phrase(s) in Gurmukhi / English Translation.

• Search Results can be Bookmarked for direct access and reference

• Read Gurbani" anywhere anytime with continuity while saving the current state of the Bani being read so that user can continue reading from the same "ang" after exiting the application.

• Swipe Navigation from one “ang” to next / previous for Touch enabled phones along with Menu option for non-touch phones.

• Home Screen will present you with something new to ponder upon every time you open the App, inspiring you to Read and Search Gurbani.

• App is based on a Dark Theme to avoid Eye Strain and save Battery life for prolonged readings. Besides users can customize view preferences with Four Background themes and Five font sizes.

• Detailed Help included in the app.

Application had been designed keeping in mind the lack of "Move to SD card" functionality prior to Froyo(2.2) and availability of limited internal storage on most devices. It has been a hard decision for not packaging the Gurbani files along with the App, as it will increase the app size unnecessarily, secondly, user have to download a heavy app from the market every time an “App update” or a “Gurbani update” is released, leading to a redundant downloads, as both are bundled. Hence we followed a segregated approach, where, App is downloaded from the Android Market in a conventional way. App in-turn is Backed by a dedicated Server from where it downloads and installs the heavy Gurbani Files separately on to the SD card for all Android Versions (Cupcake 1.5 onwards)

At most  care has been taken while composing Gurbani still there is a chance for humble human errors, your support for pointing out the correction will be highly appreciated. Further Banis can also be introduced / updated in the Nitnem section, kindly oblige us by also facilitating the softcopy for the same.

Feel free to write for feature updates that you wish to see in the App.
