About this listen

"Swift as hares, fierce as wolves!"

Born into the Scarlet Rabbit's mercenary company, Sakura Ike learned the art of combat before she learned how to serve tea as a Geisha. For her, fighting in a CASPer mech suit is as natural as breathing.

The job was simple: get down to the planet Wh'ton, retrieve the box, come home, and get paid. Easy. But then tragedy struck, and the only family she had left was her aunt Katsume and a mother that never loved her.

There is no time to grieve; Sakura must find the answers before the trail goes cold, and she loses her chance at revenge. But she can't do it alone. Together with her best friend Jeni, the shell-shocked Newsom, the mysterious Jung, and the alien warrior Taka, they must band together to hunt down the Rabbits' betrayer. The good news is Katsume has built brand new cyber battlesuits for them. The bad news is a fledgling Yakuza crime family wants to take them out before they fulfill their ultimate mission.

Will the Gunpowder Geishas get the revenge they seek, or will they become yet another failed Phoenix Initiative merc company?

A quick, fun cyberpunk read

This book reminded me in a good way of the 80s anime series Bubblegum Crisis. It's a taut, entertaining tale that is an excellent example of its type of tale. A mercenary team, in hardsuit powered armor, proceeds to become an effective force through their training and tech. Great narration too!
