Master Assassin series by Shotaro Ikenami, Gavin Frew (translator)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.3mb
Overview: Shotaro Ikenami, originally a stage writer, is best known as a master of the jidai genre of adventure fiction, which depicts the adventures of samurai, hired assassins, and ninja during Japan’s Edo period (1600-1868). Many of his tales have been successfully adapted for the stage, screen and television. Almost no jidai adventure novels—Japan’s “Easterns”—have ever been translated into English. Although samurai and ninja have long been staples of Western movies and graphic novels, the Master Assassin series introduces a completely new genre of popular fiction from Japan.
