In an ancient Japan where the incursions of gods, ghosts, and demons into the living world is an everyday event, an impoverished nobleman named Yamada no Goji makes his living as a demon hunter for hire. With the occasional assistance of the reprobate exorcist Kenji, whatever the difficulty - ogres, demons, fox-spirits - for a price Yamada will do what needs to be done, even and especially if the solution to the problem isn’t as simple as the edge of a sword.

Perfect for light reading
Reviewed: 10-27-20
This is the perfect book for light reading, I.e, for when you’re listening to a book but focusing on other things. It takes place in a series of short stories, and it’s easy to follow.
If you’re like me and have hundreds of books in your various audio libraries, then you will appreciate this as a
good beach book or vacation book.

The Skaar have arrived in the Four Lands, determined to stop at nothing less than all-out conquest. They badly need a new home, but peaceful coexistence is not a concept they have ever understood. An advance force under the command of the mercurial Princess Ajin has already established a foothold, but now, the full Skaar army is on the march - and woe betide any who stand in its way.

Strong Brooks Story, but Ended Abruptly.
Reviewed: 06-06-19
I have been reading Terry Brooks since I was a youth, and the Shannara Storyline is great. Brooks has the ability, given to few, to transport me back to the joy I experienced as a ten year old boy. This novel is not dissimilar to the other works in his canon, but I was fully engaged, because the new characters are fully formed and their stories are exciting.
I was taken aback by the ended which seemed very abrupt, and unfinished, but unlike waiting a lifetime for GRRM to publish, Brooks will have the next volume out soon. All round thumbs up.
