About the author

Wang Bing is an author about whom little public information is currently available. His writing focuses mainly on biographical subjects, and four of his works are included in the collection: volumes one through four of Imperial Knights. This multi-volume work suggests that Wang Bing tends to approach biographical subjects at considerable length and in a volume-by-volume manner, offering a systematic account centered on the figure of the imperial knight. Although reliable records of his nationality, dates of birth and death, education, and specific personal experiences are lacking, and even his English name is unknown, the very existence of the four-volume Imperial Knights reflects an author with the patience and sense of structure to sustain a single subject and build a coherent series. On the basis of the available material, any introduction to Wang Bing can only remain at the level of his works, while further details of his life await additional public information.
