Synopsis

A thrilling epic fantasy adventure in the astonishing realm of Legend of the Five Rings, as two rival clans join forces to investigate a lethal supernatural mystery

Chaos has broken out in the isolated Dragon Clan settlement of Seibo Mura. During the full moon, horrifying creatures rampage through the village, unleashing havoc and death. When the Dragon samurai Agasha no Isao Ryotora is sent to investigate, he faces even greater danger than expected. To save the village, he must confront his buried past—not to mention an unexpected Phoenix Clan visitor, Asako Sekken, who has his own secrets to hide. The quest to save Sebo Mura will take the two samurai into the depths of forgotten history and the shifting terrain of the Spirit Realms . . . and bring them face to face with an ancient, terrifying evil.

Goodreads review by Isaias on March 30, 2022

Una trama totalmente sobrenatural en contraposición a Río Venenoso que era todo mundano. Novela ligera y entretenida, ideal para colar entre libros más largos. Diría que me ha gustado más que la otra (y ojo que la otra también me gustó)......more

Goodreads review by Milou on January 08, 2021

I requested this book through Netgalley because of it’s author (and the cover to be honest), not knowing anything going into it. I was definitely excited though… and sadly somewhat disappointed. I love the idea of this. Every full moon a remote village gets attacked by a whole host of mythical and ma......more
