Once their uncle arrives at their home, Kimi and her younger sister Hana cannot wait for revenge. Their uncle kills their father who is their uncle's younger brother so he can have the title of the Jito. Together, Kimi and Hana escape their uncle's samurai and make way to the forest. They come up with a plan of going to Goku's dojo where they can learn to become samurai and seek further plans to finding their mother and younger brother.The story is well-written and very descriptive. I enjoyed reading this story immensely. I recommend this book to anyone who loves action and sword fighting. This book is very reflective and shows bravery and tolerance. You will enjoy this book for certain. After reading this, my first thought was THIS IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!It is about a the young daughter of the Jito (noble appointed by the Shogun) Kimi, and her sister, Hana. They dream of being great samurai warriors, and train in all their free time, but suddenly their father is murdered and they are forced to go into hiding in the village, dressed as peasant-boys, after killing a samurai, and they stumble across Master Goku's dojo, where their father, uncle, and brothers trained. They manage to get admitted in, as slaves, and run into their once fun-loving, but now arrogant and cruel cousin, Ken-ichi. Always wondering what will happen next, will the samurai find them, will someone find out their secrets, are they safe, they manage to survive, until the next book - which I want to read!I like this book so much because for those of you who are not from Japan, like me, since it is set in Japan (surprise, surprise!) you learn A LOT about samurai, Japanese, and about what nobles' and peasants' lives are like.I am looking forward to reading the next book very much!
Do You like book Sisters Of The Sword (2008)?
A really cute book. Readers of Tamora Pierce will delight in this book. Beware it is a little gory.
