Review # 1 was written on 2019-06-15 00:00:00 Scotty Helmut like 2.5. for a book where so many things happen, this sure is boring. it begins with no context whatsoever (the Unspeakable? what?), resolves what should be the full plot of at least one book in its own right in less than thirty pages, the timescale is much too long for anything to get the attention it deserves, and most of the narrative is a narration of army movements from a high level tactical perspective that would be better suited to RPG rulebook flavor text than to a published novel. I’m here to read a book, not a report on a Warhammer 40,000 battle — please give me some real characters, or anything else that can engage me in the story. hopefully, at least, this means that the Four Winds proper, having gotten all of this exposition out of the way in such a rush, will have some actual personality/personalities. expectations are low, though.

Review # 2 was written on 2007-09-05 00:00:00 David Holt The Clan War is over, but The danger is not. As the Spirit Wars rage, Toturi The greatest samurai in all Rokugan and his children are the only hope for Rokugan. They has managed to hold the Empire together despite warring clans and so many betrayals internal. But nothing has prepared him for the hordes of vile spirits ravaging his beloved realm. In this novel introduces new characters and settings based on the events in the Legend of the Five Rings: The Spirit Wars card set.
