Way of the Sword

Way of the Sword by Chris Bradford, 422 pages


Cover image for After being orphaned and stranded in Japan, Jack has finished his first year of training to become a samurai, however even with his new skills his troubles are far from over. While the ninja that killed his father is still out there Jack's biggest trouble comes from his fellow classmates. Jack's only hope of lies in the Circle of Three: an ancient ritual that tests a samurai's courage, skill, and spirit.
Bradford continues to demonstrate his extensive knowledge of his subject, however his cast of characters in this second one is probably larger than it needs to be with few characters being fully developed. Despite this I'd say the series is probably still worth reading if you just want a quick action adventure story.
