Synopsis

In the fog-enshrouded peaks of the island nation of Nehan, Ran, a newly minted shadow warrior is set loose on a musha shugyo, a wandering quest, whereby he must travel alone and hone his skills. Journeying aboard a merchant vessel, Ran hears tales of a mysterious lord believed to have the dead for his servants.

Soon these tales prove all too real as Ran comes to the aid of Jysal, a beautiful sorceress, whose undeveloped power gives her the ability to heal a land—or destroy it. But the Lord Kan-Gul also covets Jysal's power. And when Kan-Gul sends a army of the undead to take Jysal by force, Ran is faced with the ultimate warrior's choice: save himself, or face down a horde of enemies that cannot be killed for the simple reason that they are already dead!

Very enjoyable. I got started and couldn't put it down. I've been reading Jon F. Merz's Lawson Vampire series for years now and absolutely love them.

I really enjoyed the book but was sad to hear the trilogy was never finished. I assume because of poor sales. I m always a fan of fantasy ninjas.......more

Goodreads review by Matthew on February 22, 2015

I truly wanted to enjoy this book. A Sword and Sorcery tale of Ninjas vs Zombies? Incredible. The book was far less incredible that it could have been, and to be honest, I finished reading it only because I wanted it to be so much more than it was. The story telling was contrived and everything that......more
