im looking for something thats action packed, not historical or during a time of war, i guess you could say im looking for a Fantasy-type more then anything.
Any of you know anything like this?

i'd like fantasy type

Do you want something written by a Japanese or Chinese author or just something set in China or Japan?

Set in japan or china preferably.

There was recently a thread on FantasyFans about Asian fantasy. If this doesn't help you, post here again and I'll give it some more thought.

that was a great post, i put some on my PBS wishlist and bought another series =) thank you.

Qiu Xialong writes detective fiction set in Shanghai. I can recommend 'Death of a Red Heroine'.
