(W) Kazuo Koike (A/CA) Goseki Kojima
If Sun Tzu's
Art of War and Musashi's
Book of Five Rings were to be drawn into a manga, then
Path of the Assassin would be that manga.
An impenetrable castle must be defeated, the country's best samurai swayed, competing warlords politicked and tricked into line. All this sounds technical and textbook, so how does it turn out to be so sexy and dramatic and fun? Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima (
Lone Wolf & Cub) are masters of samurai storytelling, and
Path of the Assassin is no slouch when it comes to action, drama, tactics, sex, love, honor, and a terrific, engaging story.
• Presented, as always, in the original, unflopped, unretouched format,
Path of the Assassin is a series you won't be able to put back on the bookshelf.
• Comes shrink wrapped and carries an 18+ content advisory.
